A man explaining something to a woman in a way that is patronizing because it assumes that the woman will be ignorant of the subject matter.
Woman speaking to another woman: “ I don’t want to drink too much tonight, I have to work in the morning.”
Man standing near them at the bar: “ Actually if you drink a glass of water and take an ibuprofen before you go to bed you won’t be hungover.”
Woman: “Thank you for mansplaining, but I’m less concerned with alcohol induced dehydration and more concerned with getting to bed at a decent hour.”
