I understand that some women don't want to be called female when they are not cisgendered.

I just don't understand why a cisgendered person would have a problem being referred to as such, unless they were unsure if they were cis, or were bothered by the topic of gender identity as a whole.

If its the former, than I can understand, but if its the latter, then that's a you problem, and I don't care if you are offended being called cis.

I don't agree with the concept of gender. Therefore, I object to being referred to as "cis" or "trans". I have a sexed body and a brain within it that does brain things.

No, I don't identify as agender either. That still is part of the concept of gender.

Do you have pronouns folks should use when referring to you, or should folks just use your screen name?

I use the pronoun that is appropriate for my sex.
