MANSPLAINING

The simplifying or for women reading this "dumbing down" of an already simple logical premise/point/definition or task in an attempt to get a woman to understand it.
Jenny was angry that Henry was mansplaining how to read the map. She told him it was his fault she got lost afterwards because his explanation confused her. Without it, she would have been fine she claimed (despite his mansplaining was delivered in response to her asking"How do I use this map?)

Maxsplaining

When you trap your life long formula one rival in order to explain every little detail about your race or quali session to them without a chance of escape.

Not to be confused with Mansplaining, while similar, Maxsplaining presents clear homoerotic undertones and heart eyes from both parties involved.
person 1: where's Charles?
person 2: oh, Max got him, he already started the Maxsplaining

person 1: damn, that's a shame, there's no saving him now...

Mansplaining

A combination of the two words "man" and "explaining" which have been combined and fused in order to make it easier to say often and be easily identifiable.

It is used when a subject often the one question in conversation and following topic at hand is explained in unrequested and unrequired detail. This has been dubbed "Mansplaining" due to women finding it annoying and perceiving it as men looking down on the m without noticing that men just talk to them like they talk to men.

It is also a bit of a an everything word as the definition is very biased as men feel as they did just give helpful advice while women feel looked down upon. This means that you may if you wish utilise this word however you may please and bend the definition to agree with your argument or view.
Woman: What is mansplaining?

Rathsplaining

Rathsplaining, drawing inspiration from the Irish word "rath," meaning fortress or ringfort, symbolizes the construction of a verbal stronghold through which the speaker attempts to assert intellectual superiority and dominance. This act involves explaining simple or well-known topics with excessive complexity and a condescending tone, aiming to fortify the speaker's ego rather than enlighten the listener. By intricately weaving their words like the defensive walls of a rath, the speaker often isolates themselves, inadvertently showcasing a disregard for the audience's existing knowledge. The term highlights the unnecessary and often unwelcome elaboration that not only fails to bridge communication gaps but also establishes barriers, much like a fortress distancing its inhabitants from the outside world.
During the meeting, John couldn't help but engage in rathsplaining, offering unsolicited and overly detailed explanations on basic topics, much to the annoyance of his colleagues who were already well-versed in the subject matter. His approach not only slowed down the discussion but also served as a clear display of his need to assert intellectual dominance.
