Mansplaining

When a stupid person (in this case a female) asks a distrubingly poorly thought-out question and is then blames her embarrasment, using the “mansplaining” scapegoat, on the fact that a somebody (in this case a male) answered their question sufficiently.
Female: “If you pour all of your life savings into the stock of the company you work for and the company does good financially-“

Male:”You’re in the green then-”

Female:”STOP MANSPLAINING LET ME FINISH!!”

Cansplaining

When someone from Canada tells an America how they should feel about or react to Donald Trump. Particularly when they suggest impractical forms of resistance that they've never personally tried, tell the American to put themselves in physical danger, or wave away valid concerns. The concept is similar to the idea of mansplaining.
"Instead of saying you wish you could move to Canada because you're afraid that Trump's going to take your healthcare away and you're going to literally die, you should really be doing more to resist. You should run for office. And also go to more protests. And also participate in these 800 other forms of resistance I've never personally tried that might get you fired, arrested or killed. And just build a bridge for no reason. I've decided for some reason that you're not in any danger."

"Gee, thanks for Cansplaining that to me."

Mansplaining

When a woman says something utterly stupid and a man rudely fails to pretend like she is making sense.
While watching tennis, Mary remarked that she believed Serena Williams would beat Roger Federer if they ever played. Mike explained the biological differences between men and women to Mary. He also explained normal distributions to Mary, and how even though Serena Williams could beat 99.9% of the men in the world in tennis, that means there are thousands of men you have never heard of that could beat her. Mary did not appreciate the mansplaining and would have preferred to continue living in the false reality where women are just as good as men in sports.
