Cisgenderism

Cisgenderism, a construct related to but distinct from writing on cissexism, is an ideology that challenges people's gender identities and thus leads to discrimination against gender variant people. It is systematic, and reflected in culture and the practices of legal authorities. Cisgenderism includes normative ideas about gender, which lead to the exclusion of intersex people and cultures with systems of gender different from the Eurocentric norm, and people who do not conform to the norms of cisgenderism are categorized as transgender, nonbinary, gender fluid, etc.
