Mansplaining 

When men assume their knowledge and experiences are more valid/worth listening to than a woman's perspective/knowledge/experience. This is an unfortunate side effect of growing up in a patriarchal society where men are taught entitlement over physical and intellectual space.
Rather than listen to my sister discuss her knowledge on the topic which she has a Masters in, her boyfriend began mansplaining and talking over her about his supposed perspectives despite her greater knowledge on the topic.

Mansplaining 

Every time a man talks
Interviewer: So what exactly is mansplaining?
Man: I'm not sure, I think it's every time a man speaks.

MANSPLANING 

a term used when a feminist is upset at some poor guy who just wanted to have an opinion...
most commonly used when the feminist goes back to talk with her friends. Or in other terms "STOP MANSPLANING!!!"

Mansplaining 

When a man (not all men, so don’t hate) has some sort of insecurity which makes him want to be better than a woman in every situation so he explains simple things to women for a false sense of superiority. Usually the things they explain are things the women already know. There are cases where the man does not know the woman’s knowledge and tries to help her. If this happens, just apologize and say you weren’t aware of their knowledge. (There are feminists who use this term to degrade men, and at that point, they are not being a feminist, but a bad person)
I can’t believe he just mansplained how to pronounce my name properly.

How was work? I had several concepts I know already mansplained to me, but it was fine

Mansplaining is so annoying! Yes, I do know how to make coffee. I’m a barista!

Mansplaining 

A feeble attempt for Women to again make Men aware how rude it is to explain to them their own job/skills/capabilities. Feeble as men prefer to maintain gender inequality because it benefits them to ignore their horrible behaviour and continue to dominate and control for the sake of their insecurities. It I am much easier to be angry and blame women for wanting to be treated equally than to learn how to treat them with respect and decency.
She said I was mansplaining when allI was doing was giving her advice on how to handle a situation in her job.
