Thinsplaining

An incredibly idiotic way for people who believe in "thin privilege" make skinny women seem like jerks for sharing their experiences with skinny shaming, generally used in "body positive" tumblr blogs .
"omg yesterday I was talking about how I was bullied for my weight and Sarah actually tried to tell me that she was bullied for her weight to, the skinny bitch!1!1"

"omg thinsplaining is sooo real"

thinsplaining

A thinsplainer will tell you about all the woes of being skinny that we already know and sympathize with, only to invalidate your problems. They are naturally skinny people who start quacking about it only when anyone heavier talks about their problems. Similar to men who only bring up men's problems to invalidate women's problems.

This is so that they too. can have the joy of taking part in the oppression Olympics, since they often get left out, due to conforming to society's standards of beauty.

After whining about how oppressed they are, they go back to eating whatever they want and not gaining a pound. Usually a woman.
I was talking about how it's easier for skinny and pretty girls to get what they want, when Skinny Nelly started thinsplaining how hard it is when people don't take you seriously because you're so pretty.

Tansplaining

When a British person (tan) explains something thats blantantly obvious/false in a condescending manner to an Irish person because they're British, think they're "great" and have no grasp on their countries history.
"You know you Irish should say thanks to us if we didn't invade you you'd still be picking potatoes"

transplaining

When a trans-person tries to explain your sexual identity or orientation to you contrary to the fact that this is a personal choice and everyone has the right to identify as they please.
Person A: I'm super-straight
Person B (trans): That's transphobic, genital preference isn't a sexual identity..
Person A: Please don't transplain to me, I know what I am and it's not for you to decide. Transplaining is superphobic.

Transplaining

When a Transgender person or an ally tries explaining sexuality and science to Super Straight people and tries to invalidate their very real and valid identity in the process.
Trans: there's no such thing as a biological female read up on your science. And Super Straight can't be a sexuality it's a preference.

Super Straight: You're Transplaining. I don't know where you're going with this... But it's not in Super Straight pants.

Transplaining

When a transgender person (generally who was previously male and has transitioned or is in the process of transitioning) continues to exhibit "mansplaining" behaviour, but not longer associates with that gender.
"OMG I was just showing them my makeup routine, and they started transplaining to me about why I shouldn't be using that foundation for my skin."

transplaining

When transgender individuals complain about their self-created drama to their eternal spouse Tumblr, under the impression that the rest of the world is to unquestioningly conform its will and behavior to their demented ramblings. Spinoff of mansplaining
