Cisgender Transex: Describing individuals whose gender identity is congruent to their assigned gender at birth (AGAB), but have a sex identity that differs from their unmodified, natal sex.

Describing the intersection of cis- gender modality and trans- sex modality.

Etymology

A combination of the terms “Cisgender” and “Transex”, describing gender modality and sex modality, respectively.

The first recorded use of the term cisgender was from a 1994 post to alt.transgendered on Usenet by Dana Leland Defosse. All through the 1990s, the term was used to describe individuals who are, “on this side of the behavioral, cultural or psychological traits typically associated with one sex”, meaning “that one’s identity and presentation match their physical morphology”.

The original concept of cisgenderness differs from how it is used presently, as the original definition of the term does not account for gender assignment, meaning that it isn’t a gender modality. At this point, the term cisgender was more akin to the term “gender conformant”. The term was ultimately popularized by biologist Julia Serano in 2004 in her book Whipping Girl.

In some time between late 2018 and early 2019, jurist and bioethicist Florance Ashley proposed the concept of gender modalities. This was essentially created to emphasize that gender identity itself is different than gender identity in relation to one’s assigned gender. For instance, an transgender woman and a cisgender woman have the same gender identity, both being women, but they have different gender modalities because the transgender woman has a different gender than the one she was assigned and the cisgender woman identifies with her assignment. This change in terminology was suggested, as it attempt to reduce “othering”, enhance vocabulary, resolve semantic contraversies and allows for non-binary gender modalities (cisn’transn’t).

Transex is defined as having a sex identity that transcends one’s “biological sex“ or unaltered “natal sex”; denoting or relating to a person whose sense of sex identity or biossex does not correspond with their birth sex. This term was coined by moderator Arco Pluris of Beyond-MOGAI-Pride-Flags in 2020. The term transex is similar to transsexual, but serves as a umbrella term for all trans- related sex identities (corporeal, immaterial, desired, etc.). A sex identity is describes one’s personal sense of their sex via their sex traits and their self-interpretation of how their corporeal sex is or should be.

Some examples of Cisgender Transex identities:

An AFAB, cisgender butch lesbian who is transmasculine, desiring top surgery and HRT.

An AMAB, GNC, cisgender male drag queen who is transfeminine, desiring breasts and a wider hips.

A cisgender, xeno-aligned individual of an unknown assignment who is faunagenital, making them transxenine.

A cisgender-aligned, transn’t non-binary individual who desires genital nullification and removal of the nipples, being transneutral.

...etc.

Flag

The flag’s design is a combination of the transex flag and what I imagine a cisgender pride flag would look like if it was necessary and in good-taste to create one. The flag consists of nine main stripes, having half the flag being flipped vertically. From top to bottom, the stripes are black, dark grey, a half and half dark pink or dark blue stripe, a half and half light pink or light blue stripe, a large white center stripe with a triangular point, a half and half light pink or light blue stripe, a half and half dark pink and dark blue stripe, dark grey and black. The flag carries the following meanings:

The topmost and bottom-most black and grey stripes are represent gender conformancy.

The dark pink/dark blue stripe represents identifying with one’s gender assignment.

The light pink/light blue stripe represents transcending one’s natal sex.

The white stripe with triangular point represents being varsex.

EDIT: While researching another term, I discovered I made a mistake regarding the etymology of “cisgender”. The post has since been updated to correct this error.

EDIT 2: I had a dummy moment and accidentally classified this term as purely Aldernic. While this situation can often result in what would be classified as an Aldernic/Altersex identity, that is not necessarily the case. The post has once again been updated to correct this error.
