'''Cis-genderless''', '''Cisgenderless''', or '''Cis-By-Default''' is the act of defaulting to one's [[Assigned Gender|assigned gender]] due to a lack of gendered feeling and possibly a lack of understanding of [[gender]]. It is similar in experience to [[agender]], but if asked, a cis-genderless individual will give their assigned gender/[[sex]].
For example, an [[AMAB]] cis-genderless individual
They have little to no [[dysphoria]] regarding their assigned sex. Because of this, cis-genderless may also be defined as someone who is genderless, but uses cis in regards to their sex identity ([[cissex]]), rather than as gender identity.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://heterogen.wordpress.com/2020/01/05/on-the-term-cis-genderless/}}</ref>
Cis-genderless individuals generally do not inherently identify as [[LGBT+]] on the basis of their gender. Rather the term is used to define the gender experience (or rather lack of gender experience) that some cisgender individuals may have. It might also be used to describe an agender individual's experience of identifying as cis before discovering [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] genders.
== History ==
Cis-genderless was first described by AVEN user R_1 on April 21, 2013,<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/86589-2-cis-group-cis-cis-and-cis-genderless/}}</ref> distinguishing it from cis individuals who have a strong gender identity which matches their physical sex.
== Flag ==
The cis-genderless flag was created by AVEN user ixi on August 27, 2015. The white stripe represents [[Genderless|genderlessness]], the pink stripe represents cis [[Woman|women]], blue represents cis men, and purple represents cis [[intersex]] individuals.<ref>{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/124514-proposal-for-cis-genderless-pride-flag/}}</ref>
Three alternate cis-genderless flags were designed by FANDOM user [[User:Unfunny person420|Unfunny person420]] on May 8th, 2021.<ref>https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/File:Alternate_Cis-genderless_Flag_1.png</ref><ref>https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/File:Alternate_Cis-genderless_Flag_2.png</ref><ref>https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/File:Alternate_Cis-genderless_Flag_3.png</ref> The meanings are the same for all three flags. The light grey stripe represents cisgender individuals. Off-white represents genderlessness. Pink represents cis-genderless women, blue represents cis-genderless men, and purple represents cis-genderless intersex individuals.
