A joking phrase meant to be the male counterpart of gaslight gatekeep girlboss. Manslaughter is often replaced with malewife or manwhore.

Both phrases are used interchangeable depending on the person, but a gender neutral option is Sovereign Stealing Sway

A a dudebro/fuckboy wants to explain something they definitely know Everything™ about, often adding false intellectual materials to pass off as superior.
Example of Mansplaining: " '5 girls back to back doesn’t make me a lesbian'
Kinda makes it likely that you are more into girls than guys tho’.
Guys are much more available as partners for women unless they are quite unattractive.
But let’s imagine it was exactly equal that you would select a girl or a guy - that their sex genuinely was irrelevant, and that there was no difference in availability.
I’m rusty at maths, but from memory, the chance it’s coincidence is
(1/(2^5)) *100%
= (1/32) *100%
= 0.03125 *100%
=3.125%
Feel free to correct my maths - it’s been about 35 years now since i did probability.
But if i was a betting man - i’m going to say my money is going to be on a woman for your next partner.
Maybe you are a lesbian, and maybe dudes need to know that so they don’t get hurt? Just a thought."

Mansplaining (MAN-splayn)
A condescendingly derisive term explain a man’s attempt to give an opinion perceived to a woman (usually an uberfeminist) that that retort is condescending and derisive because of gender.

In a conversation I had with my brother-in-law, his ideas about my supposed inability to get a boyfriend was sheer Mansplaining. He thinks because he’s a man, he knows what’s best for me, despite the comment he made about men are not ingredients on my list.”

TJ is mansplaining to nobody again - that group of paraplegic orphans doesn't seem to care at all about the proper way to fold a parachute.
