Made me laugh out loud.

But it would have been even funnier if it had included a little section about the great lengths (ahem) that cis people will go to to enhance/augment/emphasize their gendered features. Facial surgery, boob jobs, pec implants, butt implants, penis extension, steroids, extreme dieting and fitness programs, clothing choices...

Just to show how much hypocrisy there is with regard to what we trans people do.

I think there was something about that, maybe not quite so directly stated though.

Totally agreed.

I think my favourite part was "cis people can be straight, gay, or even bisexual!" Even bisexual! *gasp* Wow. I'm so inspired.

Normal is just another word for average - and who wants to be average?

I do like it, and could use it for educating the more receptive members of the public.

That's the idea - it's just as condescending as the way they talk about us.
