Original Note:
Cis and trans are common prefixes in science roughly denoting same and opposite respectively. They are not new, and they are not derogatory. In biology transgender and cisgender simply refers to whether someone's gender has or hasn't changed from its assignment at birth. https://www.oed.com/viewdictionaryentry/Entry/35015487
