Get the Womansplain mug.Example 1: Corporate Environment
Male: I have a great idea. I can't believe we've never done this before.
Woman (womansplaining): I think we discussed something kind of similar about a year ago. I'm not sure I remember exactly what we decided, but maybe there were some problems with that idea and the local laws? I can see if I can find emails about it if you would like. (Translation: You presented the same bad idea last year and nothing has changed.)
Example 2: Home Environment
Man: Amazon doesn't do same day delivery in our area.
Woman: Sure they do.
Man: I know they do some places, but not in our area yet.
Woman (womansplaining): Maybe we should google it. I thought our neighbor mentioned using their same day delivery, but maybe I misunderstood what she was saying. Or maybe it's recently changed? (Translation: I'm 100% sure because my friend next door uses it ALL THE TIME.)

Get the womansplaining mug.A word invented by wah-wah MRAs who use the word feminazi, bitch, etc. because their inchoate rage has no logic behind it.
The feminazi was womansplaining to me that just because I don't have a uterus, a gf or a sister, I shouldn't legislate healthcare options for it. Duh! I had a mom.
