unrelated, but i was curious, is cis supposed to stand for 'comfortable in skin?'

No, cis is a word coined by the trans community. Cis is the opposite of trans. Basically, it means people who are happy/comfortably with the gender of the body they were assigned. People who feel their assigned sex at birth is the same as their mental gender.

Thanks for the question, don’t feel worried or embarrassed about not knowing because it’s not a word that’s widely known outside of the activist communities. However, it’s a good word to know.
