mensplaining

Mensplaining is the attempts by society to explain why men are the way they are that are not correct. The real reason's that men are struggling in the 21st Century is due to lack of father's and positive male role models in their lives which has led to a generation of immature men who lack character and direction. An African proverb says "If we do not initiate our sons they will burn down the village to feel the heat", correctly identifying the real reason men become violent and or depressed. Lack of positive male influences in their lives who can shape their character, show them what it means to be a mature man, and answer their hearts core question "Am I a man?".
Examples of mensplaining:

"Men are pigs because of toxic masculinity",
"Men abuse women because they are morally corrupt"
"Men are violent because they want to dominate others"

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.
