Cis is not a slur, cissy definitely is.

If someone thinks cis is a slur, they probably deserve it to be.

Yeah, cis is just a category. Cissy is intentionally derogatory. Def not the same.

It's kinda hard to get mad about Cissy though. It doesn't do the same damage that transphobic and homophobic slurs do. Kinda like how calling white people "cracker" is technically a slur, but people usually don't treat it the same as the n word because there isn't a long-standing history of enslaving and killing white people anywhere (or atleast anywhere I'm aware of) .

I'm in a lot of trans spaces, but I'm not on Twitter... Is that why I've never heard of that before? Because I can't imagine that's very common outside of the worst places

I remember Muskrat banning people who use that shortly after he took over Twitter.
