'''Cisgender''' (from Latin ''cis-'' "on the same side" + gender) means non-transgender. That is, a person who isn't [[transgender]], in that their [[gender identity]] matches the [[Sex#Gender Assigned At Birth|gender they were assigned at birth]], and they don't have [[gender dysphoria]]. Being cisgender is an aspect of a person's gender identity. [[Cisgender women]] are women who were [[AFAB|assigned female at birth]] (or were born with certain [[intersex]] conditions), and who have a female gender identity. [[Cisgender men]] are men who were [[assigned male at birth]] (or were born with certain intersex conditions), and who have a male gender identity. A person need not have a [[binary gender]] identity in order to be cisgender. People who were born intersex and who have a [[nonbinary]] gender identity can think of themselves as transgender, or as cisgender. Some cisgender intersex people call their gender identity "intersex," or "[[intergender]]." Some people of any gender assigned at birth think of their gender identity as cisgender at the same time as being [[genderqueer]], [[gender nonconforming]], or other identities that don't fit within the gender binary. Most cisgender people don't seek a gender [[transition]], but some do. For example, some drag artists who think of themselves as cisgender go on [[hormone therapy]]. | '''Cisgender''' (from Latin ''cis-'' "on the same side" + gender) means non-transgender.
