Womansplaining is when a Feminist try to take over a man in a conversation, due to the "patriarchy."
Feminist: "Stop being the patriarchy!"
Man: "What do you mean stop being the patriarchy, stop?"

Man: "Stop womansplaining."
Man: "What do you mean stop being the patriarchy, stop?"

Guy: "Why are you getting so angry? So I forgot to take out the trash today. Big deal!"
Girl: "The reason I'm so angry is because you always do stuff like this! Like the time we went to dinner and we ran into your ex-girlfriend, but you didn't introduce me! I felt so embarrassed and awkward but you didn't even care!"
Guy: "What??? What does that have to do with anything? Besides, that happened a year ago!"
Girl: "OMG, you are sooo frustrating! I shouldn't have to explain everything to you! You just don't get it!"
Guy: "Wow..."
Guy's Friend later at a bar after hearing the story: "Dude, you just got womansplained."
Guy: "Yep."

Taking longer to explain something than is necessary, going into too many details.
Expecting someone to be dumber than they are.

My mom was explaining something to me for 15 minutes, she could've stopped at the 2 minute mark. She totally womansplained!

Apparently, everything I've ever believed is wrong, and everything I ever feel or think is and will be as well, at least according to the womansplaining my current wife has been doing for the past 2 hours

The equally asinine counter term to "mansplain," (of a woman) to explain herself in an overly complex or unnecessarily verbal fashion, usually in an attempt to try and make a point by looking smart, or because she simply can't stop talking.
My wife goes to book club and she always has to use a 6 syllable word every other word. I wish she'd stop womansplaining her stories to me.

When a person is giving voice to an opinion or explaining something, all the while constantly interjecting excuses and self belittling nonsense.
Person 1: "I am no expert of course, but wasn't there once... or maybe twice, I'm not sure, this special campaign where it was possible to somehow exchange your old... or new I gue..."
Person 2: "Stop womansplaining and just get to the point already!"
