I'm a normal gendered researcher and I've been studying the cisgender community for years. I've discovered that they conceive of the self as being located not in the mind, but in their genitals. Cisgendereds place an undue, almost fetishistic importance on the genitals.
Curiously, the cisses have an almost phrenological approach to their genitals, particularly of the penis—which they view as immutably male. To the cis mind, the size of a penis determines social status, personality, and one's place in the afterlife.
Unfortunately, cismen and ciswomen—they are incapable of perceiving social categories outside of this—are culturally solipsistic and lack any sort of curiosity about things outside of the self. As a result, I've been unable to teach them anything about gender.
The cisgendered have a warlike culture, and I found myself unable to continue my research after I received a deluge of confusing and threatening messages.
