mensplaining 

Mensplaining is the attempts by society to explain why men are the way they are that are not correct. The real reason's that men are struggling in the 21st Century is due to lack of father's and positive male role models in their lives which has led to a generation of immature men who lack character and direction. An African proverb says "If we do not initiate our sons they will burn down the village to feel the heat", correctly identifying the real reason men become violent and or depressed. Lack of positive male influences in their lives who can shape their character, show them what it means to be a mature man, and answer their hearts core question "Am I a man?".
Examples of mensplaining:

"Men are pigs because of toxic masculinity",
"Men abuse women because they are morally corrupt"
"Men are violent because they want to dominate others"
