How can something that is abnormal be normal/equal? A he/she, she/he...
What is normal? Who gets to decide? We might consider being white as normal but globally we're in a minority. On OCuk, we might consider being male to be normal but that's not the case globally.
Cisgender is a more descriptive term. It's not a term that you might ever need to use but it's useful to some.

Seriously? Well, if you're born a male and later you go into operations to chop off your wee whacky wohoo, I'd class that as seriously abnormal. Especially those who are trying to convince 4 - 6 year olds to have sex changes.
It isn't even normal if you haven't had these operations to dress up in women's clothes.

It's normal in so far as it happens a fair amount. Also "women's clothes" is a social construct where we as a society have decided what is and isn't "women's clothes".
It's odd and bizarre to fixate on being or pretending to be something that you're not, but a lot of these gender identity issues are in part caused by how society places so much importance on staying within "gender" defined boundaries. Just look at toys aimed at girls. They are ****e that effectively teach them that women are supposed to do the cooking, cleaning and looking after babies.

lol - wuh?!It can't, but it doesn't stop people trying.
Although being transgender isn't illegal, and nor should it be, I find "cis" not too dissimilar to pedophiles inventing a term for people who enjoyed having sex with consenting adults.
lol - wuh?!
Cisgender - it's a derogatory term, isn't it?
Because girl toys have far more potential for "damage" with regards to perceived gender roles. I'm talking about things like lego, where the female aimed sets are rubbish and very different to the regular lego.Why are you fixated on what female toys do?
Male toys imply violent attitudes, submissiveness to a state, soldier worship and so on.
When people are involved, it all inherently goes wrong, nothing is neutral and never will be.
