3. define cisgender AND provide one example of a privilege that comes to those who fall under this category.

Privilege is something that only people who are part of a particular group or category benefit from or experience.

NOTE: To receive credit, you should only write ONE example of a privilege of being cisgender. You may not post the same privilege previously posted by a classmate. So, make sure you read over any previous posts.
