womansplain

A response that a woman qualifies in order to protect the male ego.
When a female qualifies a confident response for the sole purpose of protecting the male ego.
Example 1: Corporate Environment

Male: I have a great idea. I can't believe we've never done this before.

Womansplain: 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.

Womansplain: 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.)

Man: *Sees period cup*

Man: Can you mansplain/womansplain what this is to me?
Woman: It's a rubber cup people put up their vag in place of a tampon or pad during their period. It collects the blood, then you can dispose of the blood and clean the cup to reuse it.

Man: hey you’re being homophobic!

Woman: I’m not homophobic, I’m queer myself, I’m just saying, I know it can be hard for you as a gay man but that doesn’t mean you have to complain all the time. This is a W for women so please let us enjoy it.
