mansplanation nation

Men as a whole who feel it necessary to explain things to women they do not understand themselves but think that they do just because they are men. Not to be confused with slut nation.

Damn, I just can't stand the mansplanation nation.

Mansplaining

When a stupid person (in this case a female) asks a distrubingly poorly thought-out question and is then blames her embarrasment, using the “mansplaining” scapegoat, on the fact that a somebody (in this case a male) answered their question sufficiently.

Female: “If you pour all of your life savings into the stock of the company you work for and the company does good financially-“

Male:”You’re in the green then-”

Female:”STOP MANSPLAINING LET ME FINISH!!”

Maysplaining

Answering a question without saying anything meaningful or informative in your response. Usually includes an ad hominem attack directed towards a political opponent or the questioner rather than a direct answer.

Named after British prime minster Theresa May's inability to respond to questions and criticisms.

A play-on-words of the term "mansplaining".

"Did you watch prime minister's questions yesterday? Theresa May was maysplaining every question the opposition directed at her."

Interviewer: "How do you respond to the criticism that you inviting Saudi Arabian royalty to visit is endorsing state-sponsored terrorism and human rights abuses, including women's rights?"

Politician (maysplaining): "I think the opposition have bigger things to worry about, considering their leader sold secrets to a Russian spy during the Cold War! Saudi Arabia are our friends, and we are happy to invite them to our country."

Interviewer: "You didn't answer my question..."

Politician: "We have a very special relationship with the Saudis, but I think their human rights abuses are a very mean thing for them to do..."

Mansplain/Womansplain

To ask someone of the opposite sex to explain something to you thoroughly and as though you understand nothing relating to the subject. Typically used when someone believes their lack of understanding to be caused by a gender barrier.

Man: *Sees period cup*

Man: Can you mansplain/womansplain what this is to me?
Woman: It's a rubber cup people put up their vag in place of a tampon or pad during their period. It collects the blood, then you can dispose of the blood and clean the cup to reuse it.
