RE: Can Someone Please Explain Mansplaining (Rant)

in #rant7 years ago

Typically "mansplaining" is when a man describes something to a woman in a way that assumes (or seems to assume) that the woman has no knowledge on the subject. It is often also condescending and dramatically oversimplified as though the woman intrinsically has less general knowledge than men.

What you did was engage in educated discussion, not mansplaining.

I thank you for your comment. That was my original intention but receiving comments like that kind of made it seem otherwise. It is almost hard to talk to someone now without getting told I am "mansplaining" things
