The biggest thing I can think of is it sounds like sis. As in sissy.

If you're down voting my observation please do go ahead and explain why. Am I factually wrong in the way the word sounds?

Time to revert to the old Latin pronunciation of /kis/ and start calling Peterson specifically "keesgender"

Thats not what it means though, and I'm willing to wager most people upset about it know that. If someone is offended by how qn adjective sounds...I truthfully cant really say anything to that

Yeah. I can't really control how a word sounds, though, and if you're triggered because it sounds like "sissy", that's due to toxic masculinity, which is still a you problem. I'm not your therapist.
