▲'''Cisgender''' (often shortened to '''cis''') is the opposite of [[transgender]] or [[Cisn't|cisn’t]], meaning someone who always identifies wholly and exclusively as the [[gender]] they were [[Assigned Gender|assigned]] at birth. The term is not an identity by itself, rather it is a term used primarily by the transgender community as a way to describe those who are not trans. It describes [[Man|men]] who were [[AMAB|assigned male at birth]] and [[Woman|women]] who were [[AFAB|assigned female at birth]], which still go by these terms. Some [[intersex]] people who are [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] may think of themselves as cisgender.

== Cisgender vs. Cissexual ==
Cissexual or [[cissex]], is a term based off transsexual/[[transsex]]. In some contexts, it can be useful to distinguish between cisgender and cissexual, along with distinguishing between transgender and transsexual.

A fifth flag was created by FANDOM user [[User:ThunderBrine|ThunderBrine]] on November 17, 2021. The cisgender flag is depicted using gray, and well as azure and rose on direct opposite ends on the flag, symbolizing gender isolation from each other, as if the color were to touch, it could be interpreted as gender questioning, or the midway point between identifying as cisgender and transitioning into transgender. There is also a flag with no cisgender symbols on them.

An alternate cisboy and cisgirl flag were created by stardusted-queerness on July 16, 2023.
