It’s not a slur, it just means normal. The way nature made you as opposed to unnatural and artificial.”
Wrong, if so then why not use the word “normal”
cis was created to avoid that very word and used to bring down a group of people and align us with an equal footing of those who are abnormal.
It (cis) removes the distinction, now why do you suppose such people want to remove the distinction between normal and abnormal? Classic “Owellion speak” to remove from the culture a concept, making a citizen unable to speak and debate the concept, therefore making abnormal no different than normal.
Yes, the perverts definitely use it as a slur. Funny that to make themselves seem normal, they have to marginalize and malign the very definition of normal.
