momsplaining

Explanation, opinion or advice from one mother to another, often unwanted, presented in a condescending, self-righteous and/or judgemental fashion.

Like mansplaining, but for mums

"Mel asked a question in a mother's group forum and there was so much momsplaining in the answers she was given. It was very hurtful and made her feel so much mom guilt."

"The momsplaining from those lactivists was hardcore."

Mansplain

A way to attack faux sexism by using actual sexism

She said an El Camino was a truck. I told her I feel like it’s more a hybrid of a car and a truck.
She shot me for mansplaining and the woke majority called her queen

Mansplanation

An explanation (usually by a man to a woman) to explain why she shouldn't have found the sexist thing he just said, sexist.

"When I told him my looks shouldn't have any bearing on my ability to do my job, he told me to relax and gave a long mansplanation about how I should take being told I'm pretty as a compliment."

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.

Mansplaining

When a person (usually a man) explains something that has already been stated or is clearly already known, usually in a condescending way. Usually done because a person feels they need to explain something that really doesn’t need an explanation.

Woman: Hey look there’s the hockey stadium.

Man: Yeah the hockey stadium is where the team plays hockey and you can watch hockey games.

Woman: I know what a hockey stadium is. Thanks for the mansplaining. 🙄

Mansplaining

A hate speech slur often used by a woman who is losing an argument in an attempt to invalidate a man's position by bashing his gender. The term was invented by feminists who realized they had no ability to use logic, facts, and reason, and therefore needed a buzzword to shame men into silence. The feminists claim the word means that a man is explaining something in a condescending way, but that's only a false cover. The English language already has terms for that such as "to patronize." "Mansplain" is generally used to belittle a man based on his sex when a feminist is incapable of countering his argument and her feelings are hurt.

Male pharmacist: You should never overuse acetaminophen because it could damage your liver or kidneys.

Feminist: Oh, my God, stop mansplaining to me.

Pharmacist: It's my job to make sure you understand this medication so you can use it safely.

Feminist: Stop it! You're talking down to me. I'm an expert because I watched a Youtube video on the topic.
