Danceplanation

A danceplanation is when a person is telling a story or explaining a concept while raising and waving their arms all over the place. At the same time they'll shuffle their feet and occasionally throw a small kick in front of themselves; but, kicking isn't mandatory. In extreme cases both feet may come off the ground.
You should have seen Bob's face when his girlfriend confronted him about that girl he was talking to at the bar. He was giving quite the danceplanation.

dansplanation 

When a Danish person uses a combination of patriotism and limited knowledge of the non-Danish world to explain Danish society to a foreigner. This foreigner may be a tourist or a resident immigrant.
"Here in Denmark, we eat Danish rye bread. All of the children eat it every day. I don't know why and we don't think about it. That's just the way it is."

"Here in Denmark, all women hold jobs and work as equals to the men" is a dansplanation because it assumes that someone from another country or culture has a different experience.
