Whatever helps people to find their comfort in life. As long as it doesn't infringe upon others.

Futile... you don't seem to realize that Alice is not cisgender by any means.

Gendered slur and thought terminating cliche.

Where have I see that type of response in GSM discussions...

Oh yes, when I've heard social conservatives bemoan the homosexual agenda pushed by "fags".

Sociologists Kristen Schilt and Laurel Westbrook define cisgender as a label for "individuals who have a match between the gender they were assigned at birth, their bodies, and their personal identity" as a complement to transgender.

Cisgender is not a slur, Moros. Although some who are gender-variant use it like one, unfortunately.

Okay, I'm sorry I wrongly identified you. I guess I don't understand how someone who isn't cisgender could possibly say that changing the binary gender system isn't important. It would be like a black person saying racism isn't much of a problem.

Talk about missing the forest for the trees.

The gendered slur was "bitch" and the thought terminating cliche was the first part.

It is not my fault you or Mr. Montcrieff or whatever can't handle reversed ordered terms.

My point stands.

The quote involved both qualities.

It was left an exercise to the reader to decide which belongs to what - an exercise that some readers evidently failed.
