Examples of Cissexism
Some typical examples of cissexism in the daily life include:
– Believe that secondary sex features of a person, such as voice or facial hair, indicate the gender
– Use “ladies and gentlemen” to greet people, which could alienate nonbinary people
– Ask invasive questions about the body or gender of a person based on how they look
– Ask people to identify the gender between “female” and “male” in applications or forms
– Make products only for two genders
– Do not provide insurance or medical options for transgender or nonbinary people [2]
