It's rather amusing how, after @CaraSantaMaria posted a Tweet complaining about all the mansplaining emails she's gotten recently, so many clueless men denied there was such a thing or, even more cluelessly, mansplained mansplaining, thus unwittingly proving her point.https://twitter.com/speakerofdehuis/status/1005717206359949314 …

Replying to @gorskon @CaraSantaMaria
Anything complex or disagreeable said by a man can be dismissed as mansplaining, so it seems unclear to me what utility the term actually has

It is probably safer for you than having to logically defend a self serving bit of flabby rhetoric. So, by all means, save the gif.

"Mansplaining is, at its core, a very specific thing. It's what occurs when a man talks condescendingly to someone (especially a woman) about something he has incomplete knowledge of, with the mistaken assumption that he knows more about it than the person he's talking to does."

Replying to @ashlux @stephenstrom1 and
Who decides he's condescending? How could you know the man has incomplete knowledge? How do you know he doesn't know more than you? What's it called when woman do this? Or what if a man does this to a woman and she IS wrong? This is such a discriminatory term, gross.

As a woman, I can say with 100% confidence that when I know more than a man, i KNOW i know more than a man. And I also know that he is 100% confident that he knows more than me when he easily doesn't and presents arguments that can be ripped apart in ten words. Or one tweet.
