HiroProtagonist posted:cis is literally a chemistry term, also. it just means one side of an isomeric molecule. hence, "beat him with a chemistry textbook" because cisgender came from the organic chemistry context as far as the prefix is concerned. It's Latin for "on the same side", as opposed to "trans" (on the other side). As prefixes, they're used for a whole lot of words, not just chemistry and gender.

Pookah posted:Seems accurate to me too - I've argued a good bit with people who claim being referred to as 'cis' is a slur, and pointed out that trans/cis are just descriptors like gay/straight, and do they feel insulted if they are described as a straight person? it's funny because i definitely DO remember society going through this exact same thing 25 or 30 years ago wrt "straight" as well; it was a slur, because they said they were normal and didn't want any gay-people words applied to them. i guess small victory that the window has moved so that now some of the bigots are unwilling to outright say "because I'm normal" as their reason?

I thought chemistry and gender uses both just came from the Latin “cis-“ prefix meaning “on same side” with an opposite of “trans-“ meaning on other side, like “cisalpine” did as well. I hadn’t heard that the gender usage had been informed by chemistry terminology at all. Where did you encounter that? E: oh, there were more posts transpagebreak

The prefix "trans" shows up all over the place, but I can't recall seeing "cis" outside of chemical names.
