[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not dangerous to identify as trans and then later identify as cis. It is dangerous to identify as trans, not have family support, and do stuff like attempt suicide or run away from home.[/quote] There's no need to use clinical terminology. Just refer to normal. As for no danger in identifying as trans -- are you KIDDING me? Have you seen the danger people who identify as trans are subjected to?[/quote] Actually, the need exists because of the exact thing you mention- the danger trans people are subjected to. Avoiding calling people who aren't trans "normal" by using the term "cis" (which is not clinical, btw) is one way to decrease that danger. [/quote]
