      Men are more likely to 'information-impart' but not especially to women & to assume sexism is nearly always narcissistic & paranoid.https://twitter.com/greenrd/status/912244266453405696 …

      I've no doubt that they genuinely describe behaviour that some women have experienced from sexist men

      Curious how old you are. Men in my generation and older assume women don't know stuff all the time. They also treat women like they are 1/2

      too emotional & not rational thinkers. Not all, obviously, but it's common, even when they don't realise they're doing it. 2/2

      & cld 'mansplaining' often be women treating men like they're too direct & information-based & not appreciating differences in communication

          Yes. They are more likely to do that but to each other as well. I think this is a gender difference.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/912633919614398464 …

          I think men are more likely to just present whatever knowledge they have in a neutral way & be less perceptive to whether it is needed. https://twitter.com/Gil_Ant/status/912627786543718400 …

          It's hard to articulate the nuance here, but in my experience (which may differ from yours) it isn't the same when they explain to men.

          I wonder if the difference isn't women's perceptions.https://www.economist.com/blogs/prospero/2014/07/conversation-and-sexes?fsrc=scn/tw/te/bl/ed/conversationandthesexeswhymeninterrupt …

          It's also possible that the same behaviour doesn't have the same causes or motivations. Men can curry favour with both men and women, but...
