Cisgender and its assumptions

Cisgender refers to people whose assigned sex at birth aligns with their gender identity, yet the term's power lies in revealing that cisgender is not the unmarked default but one identity among others. Examining cisgender assumptions means asking how institutions and cultures treat it as natural, inevitable, and beyond question.
