got your grandpappy on my dick: PSA: Calling a person “civil” after they calmly explain why you fucked up is not a compliment.
You have already breached the bounds of civility when some racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, or whatever shit came out of your mouth/keyboard.
People extending the hand of goodwill that you didn’t earn is not them being civil, which is a basic requirement for more or less peaceful coexistence. A person choosing to be polite in response to your bullshit is them going above and beyond the call of duty and should be acknowledged as such.
Alternatives to civil* include: gracious, patient, accommodating, understanding, tolerant, forgiving, lenient, generous.
(* Also add “rational” to this list of NOT A FUCKING COMPLIMENT terms.)

aside from being cissexist the whole XX = female and XY = male thing is Straight-Up Wrong
AFAB people can have XO, XXX, XXXX and XY chromosomes while AMAB people have have XXYY, XYY, and XXchromosomes and since the majority of the population never has their karyotype examined, they’ll never know that they have one of these chromosomal quirks unless that specific combination has associated symptoms, and not all of them do. you could literally have one of the aforementioned combinations without even knowing it and meanwhile you’re insisting that all AFAB people are XX and that anyone else who has this must also be female
we could also talk about how hormonal patterns for XX persons can naturally and biologically mirror that of a typical XY person, or vis versa, which gives rise to things like androgen insensitivity disorder. here u have it, folks, an whole group of intersex people who have XY chromosomes and testicles and vulva and vagina, all grown naturally, all at the same time.
the number of people who are intersex mirror the number of people who are born with red hair, but no one goes around trying to say that red isn’t a natural hair colour just because the phenotype doesn’t manifest in the majority of the population.
#hmmmm it’s almost like the gender binary is a piece of shit

How To: Three Amazing Braids
take a cue from katniss and play with your hair.
Woven Topknot
the technique: start with damp, moussed hair. brush hair from roots up to the desired height, ponytail sections in place using clear elastics and secure each section with bobby pins. taking your ribbon, secure into base of ponytails with bobby pins. braid each ponytail down using the three-strand technique. secure with elastics, then wrap up and around & up and over interchangeably.
the twist: up the style ante by weaving in a vintage hermes scarf or gold lame ribbon.
Punk Plait
the technique: this braided mohawk is simple to execute. start with hair blown dry straight. then, section hair from center of forehead using your nose as a guide. plait this section into a french braid or cornrow, depending on your expertise. at the nape of the neck, secure with clear elastic. “i wanted the hair to reflect strength with the braid and soft flow with the silky, straight hair,” explains redken stylist jenny balding of the look she created for the paolo hernandez ss14 runway show.
Boho Braid
the technique: start off with your hair set into curls with a 1 ¼-inch barrel iron, part from the top section from ear to ear and set this section aside for later. use the rest for a loose french braid down the back and secure the ends with clear elastic. release top section and lightly tease for rough texture. spray generously with hairspray. divide the unbraided section into three, twist down each section and bobby pin into the braid, tucking from behind. twist and tuck remaining loose strands for desired effect, tease for more texture, slightly loosen the braid and spray to finish. “this look is about texture in its perfect place. It shouldn’t be droopy,” says hair stylist candice crawford, .
The Twist: crawford advises using colored hair chalk to create an ombre effect on the finished product. or stud braid with pearl-tipped hairpins for a more district 1 effect.
