No, there very clearly is such a thing. If I make it illegal to say the word "gay", non-gay people are much less affected than gay people are.

By that logic, if someone makes it illegal to say the word "cis", then non-cis people are much less affected than cis people are.

Why? Trans people have a reason to use the word cis, whereas cis people usually don't, since it's accepted as "normal".
