We've clearly been in different parts of the internet!
I do read a lot of people talking about gender, trans and queer theory, etc., where "cis" is just a useful word corresponding to a fairly fundamental concept - and is far heavier on denotation than connotation. Equally, I tend on instinct to avoid the shoutier parts of town (including Twitter), so I may miss some of these pharisaical exchanges. At any rate, I'm grateful to everyone who's commented (so far at least!) for keeping this particular conversation so good spirited.
