We've been using hair color as a metaphone for sex (as in the type, not the act) and gender.
Gender discussions?
Oh no.

I don't think this discussion is actually still a part of the PA thing. I think as long as Tumblr exists, this thread will always evetuntually work its way back to this.

The problem with saying that not being trans is the default state of being is that most trans people feel they were born as the wrong sex/assigned the wrong gender, in the same way most gay people feel they were born attracted to the opposite sex.  Thus saying there should be no word for cis is equivalent to saying there should be no word for brown hair (or whatever the local most common hair is).  Both are the norm but you don't default to being cis any more than you default to being a brunette.
