I read something to that effect in Something Awful ("you shouldn't say cisgender or cisgendered, it must be cis gender."). No rationale was ever given. It is probably some shibboleth designed to tell who is susceptible to become their "allies".
So the "-ed" is what kills it. Different reason than I thought, but good to know.
That's not even grammatical, though. Cis- only functions as a prefix.
This reminds me of the best question to ever ask(Online):
I've noticed this, too. They act like real people aren't actually real, and so, to them, it's totally okay to have trans headcanons for Fall Out Boy or whatever other band they're obsessed with. But then they go and act like fictional characters are real, to the point where they'll claim to be those characters or have them living in their heads. So if you say, for example, that Garnet from Steven Universe isn't black because she's an alien with red skin, they'll go apeshit and act like you just invalidated a real person's racial identity. Hell, speaking of Steven Universe, fans of that show harassed a girl to the point that she attempted suicide, all because she drew Steven's mom slightly skinnier than she is in canon. That should give you a good idea of where Tumblr's priorities lie when it comes to fiction and reality.
You don't understand, guys. They decided they were a flying blue ocelot with psychic powers over five minutes ago and their fucking shitlord grandparents still have the audacity to call them by their human deadname. You have no idea of the minor inconveniences they face during this traumatic time.Happy Thanksgiving from Tumblr!
No, you don't deserve a round of applause for doing things that make you uncomfortable. It's called being a fucking adult.

Yeah, that one stood out as the dumbest one. God forbid you should have to make your house look decent, or at least livable, when you have guests over. These people are so entitled, it's ridiculous.
So while some of these make sense, the entire population of Ancient Greece is currently rolling in their graves.
Deal with relatives bragging about your achievements?Happy Thanksgiving from Tumblr!

For people who devote their lives to complaining about how everything is so hard for them and they're the victim of every given situation in the world, being told that you have actually done stuff and been the victor in some situations must be like being shot in the foot.
