    I don't know what that bold underlined word means. I assume it's derogatory in some way though.
    And no it is literally what it says it is in that title. It's the diversity life cycle... So again I don't get where you are coming up with these wild assumptions as to what it means, then saying others have a wild mentality.

    it's not it's just the opposite of lgbt, it's short for cisgender and heterosexual. just descriptive words to describe people. Also it's literally the last part of the circle it says it right there "lol if you hate us why not make your own space"

    Did you know, people find the labels you give "cisgender" etc offensive?

    It’s literally cisgender heterosexual. The prefix cis being the opposite of trans in Latin. It’s in no way derogatory.

    A quick search online would disprove how it is used most of the time, but that's alright I guess..

    is Black a slur because some people say racist things? Like just cuz some asshole says scum right afterwards doesnt mean the word itself is derogatory. That's like me saying "Blast those rebel scum" and now rebel is derogatory from it. Come on use your brain don't be disingenuous. Also what did you even search, i searched cisgender it just explains it means someone who isn't trans. or "person whose sense of personal identity and gender corresponds with their birth sex."

    I don't know if I'm being disingenious here when it's pretty much always used in a negative manner go hit up twitter, have a look, it's basically like saying "the gays", also such word is meaningless outside of a medical conversation. I thought we were trying not to define people by their sexuality and stuff? Nah I guess not.


    EDIT:
    Keep being disingenious when the conversation is about the usage of "cishets" I guess.

    Not sure if it's root makes it less derogatory. There's a spanish word I could use that would result in a instant ban. So roots don't tell me much. I think it is more with the context of the word. Which I feel it was used in a derogatory way. And I would prefer if I were not referred in that way.

    okay then as a person who isn't trans and is straight what would you prefer the adjective to be.

    It's called a descriptive word. It's an adjective used to describe things. Hope this explanation helps.
