So, pray tell, if cis is not related to sexuality then why is it used that way? And why is so dif--as it is given some special deference--than simply straight.

And much as you clearly feel like its beneath you to be aligned with those simpler years, the 80s were not that long ago. Not prehistoric. It was also a time when gay folks had to work hard for their right to survive so they didn't spend so much time ginning up monikers to individuate themselves to the point of alienating allies.

Don't condescend, dear. That's why ordinary old knuckleheads such as myself lose interest in your concerns.
