"I am a ciswoman and I am happy to centre ppl born and raised as male in my sex class, advocacy and single-sex places because I have internalised the idea that my body is lowly and unimportant and that female ppl do not deserve to have their unique needs recognised and met".
"I think being a woman is so low that I don't believe any male would want to debase himself enough to become us unless he was compelled by either a terrible affliction or a silly ladybrain like mine. I choose not to be offended by the fact that his identification as me relies on
regressive stereotypes or the pornification of women, because deep down I don't think women are anything more, worth more. I have embraced the term cis to show that my abnegation is my sole purpose and value and I take my sacrificial role very seriously.
Sometimes my battered self-respect rears its bloody head up but ducks again because deep down, the real reason I accept all this is because I am scared. I have always been. I know what men do to women who say No. So I point to the next woman and shouts "terf" so she gets kicked.
I am cis and I'd rather side with the powerful and aggressive males than with my sisters because I am powerless. My need to feel powerful renders me dishonest and prevents me from admitting that trans rights are possible without destroying women's rights. I am a ciswoman."
