a man explaining something 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 as if men are smarter than women and they try to look down to women.

mansplaining, is when a man takes the opportunity to prove his existence in a conversation and give himself a pat on the back when talking about something personal to a woman as if he knows her life more than she does, as if he knows what's best for her more than she does.
Woman:"Sorry, I feel really down right now, I'm not in the mood for going out"
Man mansplaining:"I don't believe you're really sad, I think your sadness comes from your own perception of your life, you are seeking this sadness, consciously or unconsciously. Therefore, I don't think you should think about all this because if you're sad, then certainly you have decided it, I won't make this longer, but I think this is really bad for you and everyone surrounding you, including me".

by That feminist October 08, 2020
When an individual of the male sex proceeds to explain something/ some situation to a woman that she most likely knew already and most certainly did not ask for such an explanation. May be condescending but not always.

Female: Did not ask for a ,mansplaining session but go off
