Frustrating relative lack of LGBT NPCs in this game

[AlyaNimfa]

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.

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.

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.

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.

People.
It fazes me how you want to be more "inclusive" yet create a segregation by using pejorative terms like "cis" or "cishet"

dude, buddy, person, stranger, man, or girl... Don't feel my sexual orientation needs to be part of my adjective personally.

So in a sentence when you're describing people who arent LGBT what do you say?

The things I listed I used for everyone LGBT or not.

I refer to most people as sir or ma'am as I am southern and as a child I would be popped in the mouth for not saying this, as I was told it was disrespectful.

So you're saying if I'm talking about people who are LGBT I say "LGBT People" and when I'm talking about people who aren't I just say "people"? Just people implies not LGBT?
