It just means "not transgender."
Someone could be a crossdresser but still be cisgender.
Is transgender a spectrum?
I don't know if you could call it a spectrum, but there are certainly more types of transgender people than cisgender. MTF, FTM, gender fluid, non-binary, and maybe even more. I wouldn't say there are degrees of transgenderism, tho. You are or you aren't.
Sexuality, on the other hand, is definitely a spectrum.
It's definitely more complicated than cis or trans being a binary, I should know since I'm Isogender, neither cis nor trans. Not sure if gender modality is a spectrum though.
