Tansplain

When a Brit who is abysmally clueless and oblivious about all things Irish explains pompously and condescendingly to an Irish person about his or her own country's history and geography, in a way which only serves to highlight the Brit's total ignorance. Named after the black and tan militia.
Boris: "Look, you're part of the British Isles, which means you are a British Isle, not a separate country, you belong to us and you really should know your place."

Pat: "Nice tansplaining, Boris."

Mansplaining

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.”
