Women's and gender studies scholar Mimi Marinucci writes that some consider the 'cisgender–transgender' binary distinction to be as dangerous or self-defeating as the [[gender binary|masculine–feminine gender binary]] because it lumps people who identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual (LGB) together (over-simplistically, in her view) with a [[heteronormative]] class of people in an opposition with transgender people; she says that characterizing LGB individuals together with heterosexual, non-trans people may problematically suggest that LGB individuals, unlike transgender individuals, "experience no mismatch between their own gender identity and [[gender expression]] and cultural expectations regarding gender identity and expression".<ref>{{cite book |last = Marinucci |first = Mimi |publisher = Zed Books |year = 2010 |title = Feminism is Queer: The Intimate Connection between Queer and Feminist Theory |url = https://archive.org/details/feminismisqueeri00mari |url-access = limited |pages = [https://archive.org/details/feminismisqueeri00mari/page/n141 125]–126 }}</ref>

Gender studies professor Chris Freeman criticizes the term, describing it as "clunky, unhelpful and maybe even regressive" and saying it "{{zwj}}creates{{snd}}or re-creates{{snd}}a gender binary".<ref name=":0" />
