Question restatement: Which of the following persons would be accurately described as “cisgendered”?

Option 1: 'A person born as a biological female who embodies both masculine and feminine characteristics' — This describes someone who might express a mix of gender traits, and while it could align with nonbinary or gender-nonconforming presentations, it does not specify alignment between biological sex and gender identity. It therefore does not uniquely define cisgender status.

Option 2: 'A biological male who prefers romantic and sexual relationships with biological males' — This describes sexual orientation (gay) and biological sex, but it does not address gender identity relative to biology. Cisgender status requires that gender identity matches biological sex, not information about sexual orientation.

Option 3: 'A biological female who identifies as female and feminine' — This statement asserts that the person’s gender identity (female) aligns with their biological sex (biological female). That alignment is the core of cisgender, distinguishing it from transgender. The inclusion of identifying as female and feminine reinforces the alignment between identity and assigned sex at birth.

Option 4: 'A biological female who enjoys dressing in men’s clothing' — Clothing choices are about gender expression and do not determine gender identity or the relationship between biological sex and gender identity. This could describe a range of identities, including cisgender and transgender individuals, so it cannot define cisgender status by itself.

Option 5: 'A person whose biological sex is inconsistent with their gender identity' — This defines a transgender individual, not a cisgender one. The phrase highlights a mismatch between assigned sex at birth and gender identity, which is the opposite of cisgender.

Why the correct option fits cisgender terminology: cisgender describes someone whose gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth. In this set, the statement that a biological female identifies as female and feminine directly reflects that alignment, whereas the other options either mix in aspects of sexual orientation, gender expression without identity alignment, or describe the opposite of cisgender.

Why the remaining options are incorrect in terms of cisgender definition: 
- Option 1 introduces a blend of masculine and feminine traits but does not confirm identity alignment with biological sex. 
- Option 2 centers on sexual orientation rather than gender identity relative to birth-assigned sex. 
- Option 4 emphasizes gender expression (dress) rather than identity alignment, which is insufficient to establish cisgender status. 
- Option 5 explicitly describes a mismatch between biological sex and gender identity, which would be transgender, not cisgender.
