When a feminist decides to make up some bullsh*t thing men do and then tries to explain it as if it's a real thing.

When a woman explains (usually to a man) the emotional and psychological causes and context of his behavior.
Her husband kept coming home too late to help make dinner, so she womansplained to him that his unconscious sexism made him feel that cooking was a feminine duty.

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.)

Womansplaining is the repeated, futile attempt by a woman to get a man/group of men to listen to her when she knows more about a subject (often being her own body) instead of talking over her and dismissing her ideas, thoughts and opinions solely based on her gender.
Often incorrectly used by men, in knee-jerk retaliations, to mean a female version of a "mansplainer." The unequal dynamic is similar to that of the word "whitesplainer;" a patronising white person telling (for example)a black person of colour what it's like to be black, and how they should overcome racism.

I tried telling that man that period pain can be excruciating but he loudly talked over me with his opinion until mine just became futile womansplaining.

The act of a woman claiming a man is mansplaining even though he had good evidence and is totally right woman who do not claim this are not woman splaining
“Hey did you know that mushrooms are a hive mind.” Woman “ cool that reminds me of .” Man

“That’s not a real thing.” Man “yes it is I had it done to me all of my life.” Woman “yeah because you have had conversations all of your life and quit womansplaining.” Men
