The act of a female correcting a male while being blatantly wrong. Not to be confused with Mansplaining. The act of a male asserting proper correction over a female, who is statistically more likely to be wrong on a subject.
Man: Egypt has been in player in the global economy for several thousands of years.
Female: Centuries, actually.
Male: Yea so several thousands of years is actually longer than centuries. Quit Womansplaining

When a woman fakes empathy, and or pretends to be on your side in order to get her point across to you.
Man: I can’t believe it’s legal to be lesbian but illegal to be gay in Kuwait.
Woman: boohoo stop bitching about everything just cause you’re a faggot.
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.

A woman's habit of rationalizing the most stupid and illogical things ad nauseum in order to appear smart or empathetic. Also used to explain away their own bullshit by deflecting it and making it seem like there's something wrong with you
Jackie has been womasplaining how setting rat traps is mean despite the fact that rats spread disease for the last three hours.
Ivette has been womansplaining how it was rude of me to ask her to take her call in the other room instead of sitting 3 inches from me while I'm watching this movie that has been on for 45 minutes - because she was "talking low"

Similar to mansplaining, but instead of patronizing dialogue, she feels the need to explain her emotions and/or reason for her stated comment.
Usually happens when a woman feels the need to reconcile after her statement.

Ex. A
Coworker 1 : After John said “how much longer?”, Sally gave a long explanation on all the reasons for the wait instead of just telling him the time.
Coworker 2 : “Oh she was just womansplaining.”
Ex. B
Guy_gamer-1 - “Give me free stuff.”
Girl_gamer - “How many times is this guy gonna ask for free stuff?”
Guy_gamer-2 - “Damn why you say that?”
Girl_gamer - **very long description on how many times the guy_gamer-1 has asked for free stuff and goes on to explain how she was feeling for each of those times**
Girl_gamer - “Now he knows not to do that again.”
