cielsplaining

When a person starts explaining about a thing they're interested in obsessively (for ex. movies). Usually this has no correlation to the topic of the conversation, nor does anyone care about what they're saying.

"We were talking about saws and Leigh started cielsplaining about the Saw movie franchise"

Civsplaining

Civsplaining (blend word ‘civvy’ & informal form splaining of gerund ‘explaining’) is pejorative term meaning "(of a civ) to comment on or explain something to #squaddie in condescending, overconfident, often inaccurate or oversimplified manner"

I’m not #civsplaining you thick squaddie twat, I’m giving you guidance based on my considerable military knowledge gleamed from Commando comics & years of mucking thick military types, like MrSnaplegs, around.

Cisplaining

Not unlike mansplaining, Cisplaining is the act of a cisgender person explaining a transgenderone of a subject the latter is more knowledgeable in. The word is usually used to describe a situation in which the cis explains the trans of a trans-related subject or about a transgender experience, which the cisgender person, being cisgender, has never experienced.

Trans: "I think casting Scarlett Johansson to a role of a trans man is a very bad representation because-"
Cis: "Oh, nonsense! Johansson is a great actress, she will be a wonderful representation. So what if she is a woman?"
Trans: "That, right there, was the exact definition of cisplaining."
