| '''Cistrans''' or '''transcis''', sometimes named as '''trancis''' or '''trisgender''', or simply '''tris''', is a broad term for anyone who may identify as both [[cisgender]] and [[transgender]] for whatever reason. This label is mainly used within the [[intersex]] community, but is not an exclusively intersex term. It is a term for anyone who feels they are both cisgender and transgender simultaneously or separately. A very common use of the term is when an intersex person is not perceived as their AGAB due to being intersex. | |

| The term trisgender and its flag were created by DeviantArt user 67plus-genders on February 3, 2018, suggested by manga-lover3.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/67plus-genders/art/Trisgender-728937134</ref>
| | Currently, there are no scholarly sources for the existence of this term, even so it has been used in queer spaces, and finding evidence of this isn't difficult. This page was made to help educate people on the term, as many have begun to claim the label as harmful. |
