whymoaning 

The source of mansplaining, men over explain things because women use why questions to complain or moan about the way things are based on their observations and criticisms of their surroundings.

Wife: "Why are your underwear on the floor?"
Husband: "Stop whymoaning, either pick them up, or tell me to pick them up and I will! Unless you do of course want me to mansplain the sport of laundryball"

womoaning 

Portmanteau to describe when a woman wants to talk only about her problems instead of possible solutions, implicitly expecting the listener to solidarize unanimously and to show emotional support. The pathological phenomenon is recursive co-rumination.

Cindy’s boyfriend Jack picks her up from work.

Cindy: "You wouldn’t believe, my boss assigned me two more projects to see through today. They are both due on Monday, so I have to work over the weekend - again! Clarissa never has to do overtime. This is so unfair. I can’t keep up, I’m exhausted…"
Jack: "He always does this to you. Why don’t you speak up? You need to talk to him about this."
Cindy: "I don't want you to help, I want you to listen."
Jack: "I cannot understand your womoaning. It gets you nowhere."
