Manslate

To translate what a male friend is really trying to say before he digs himself into a deeper hole.

Let me manslate what my idiot buddy really means by that.

Mansplain

A way to attack faux sexism by using actual sexism

She said an El Camino was a truck. I told her I feel like it’s more a hybrid of a car and a truck.
She shot me for mansplaining and the woke majority called her queen

Mansplanation

An explanation (usually by a man to a woman) to explain why she shouldn't have found the sexist thing he just said, sexist.

"When I told him my looks shouldn't have any bearing on my ability to do my job, he told me to relax and gave a long mansplanation about how I should take being told I'm pretty as a compliment."

mansplaning

when a woman is not smart enough to understand something, so a man explains it to her

woman: the wage gap shows that females are being payed less for the same job.
man: the wage gap is only showing the average pay of man and woman, it does not count for hours worked or different jobs.
woman: STOP MANSPLANING!!!

Mansplaining

Explanations done (mostly by men to women) in a condescending, overconfident often inaccurate and oversimplifying manner.

In many cases done by some guy to a female expert in a field.

Female expert: Here’s an article that shows how this issue is affecting another issue
Some guy: Well, actually it’s not that simple because this issue is affecting that issue in this way as you would understand if you actually read the article and this passage:*quotes article*
Female expert: I know, I wrote the article you just quoted. Stop mansplaining my own words to me.

manslation

To interpret a woman's words or instructions into a language men can understand.

Debbie handed me her purse and said to keep an eye on her Marc Jacobs she got in New York. I looked at Mike for a manslation and he said...."be careful, it's very expensive"...then i understood.

Mansplaining

When a person (usually a man) explains something that has already been stated or is clearly already known, usually in a condescending way. Usually done because a person feels they need to explain something that really doesn’t need an explanation.

Woman: Hey look there’s the hockey stadium.

Man: Yeah the hockey stadium is where the team plays hockey and you can watch hockey games.

Woman: I know what a hockey stadium is. Thanks for the mansplaining. 🙄
