Re: I might be too old-fashioned for all this

I get what you're saying. It is confusing either way... would "real male" be any better, or the same? Or "traditional male"? I just feel there needs to be some distinction between "man in body" and "man in spirit"... personally, myself, for my own peace of mind. I'm not suggesting that anything I propose needs to be the rule for everyone.

Honestly, I'd just use biological male, since what you're referring to is someone who was born biologically male, and the terms already in use so there'd be less confusion attached to it. But it's really up to you.

The average person offline, and possibly online, is not familiar with that term.

they can open a dictionary

Shocking as it may be, dictionaries do not generally contain definitions of prefixes. They contain definitions of actual words.

Instead of being a total jackass about it, when someone asks you what a word means online or in real life, you could, quite possibly, tell them what it means instead of telling them to open a dictionary, or (jesus christ) directing them to the pinnacle of douchebaggery that is LMGTFY.

uh, I dunno what kinda shitty dictionaries you use, but all the ones I've ever looked in do define things like prefixes and suffixes.

now, an actual objection would be that many dictionaries probably don't have this definition of cis in them yet.
