therasplaining

Much like mansplaining; When a student in psychology is explaining basic trauma to someone.

Person 1: "If he was hurt by a man then having a different man touching her will bring up trauma"

Person 2 "thank you mister psychologist for therasplaining basic trauma to me" -a woman with trauma

themansplaining

The practice of a historically empowered group telling a historically disempowered group, often in a manner regarded as condescending or patronizing, what they should worry about, what they should do or even what they should be called because the empowered group think they care and know better instead of asking the disempowered group what they actually want to worry about, do or even be called.

“I live in a high crime area and people in the safe suburbs keep themansplaining to me how I should defund the police that, while not perfect, protect me.”

theresaplaining

When a speaker tries to avoid a question by uttering some childish remark and then to follow this up with a smirk, a jab of the finger and an endless series of meaningless and utterly confusing sound bites.

The Prime Minister spent most of question time in parliament theresaplaining.

terfsplaining

When a terf or gc(gender critical) individual explains how transgender individuals transition works, even when trans people almost always know more about transitioning. It's almost all done out of ignorance and joking in an echo chamber that terfs have created.

Terf: "you will always be a woman even if you cut off your dick for a rot pocket"
Trans woman:" stop terfsplaining to me and open google"
