Mansplaining is, at its core, a very specific thing. It's what occurs when a man talks condescendingly to someone (especially a woman) about something he has incomplete knowledge of, with the mistaken assumption that he knows more about it than the person he's talking to does.

When's the last time you mansplained something to some poor girl

This is one of those terms that really has become a buzzword.
It exists much better as a term to describe aggregate behavior than it does individual interactions.

Men actually know more though because women are fucking dumb.

I never mansplain, cause I'm always right.

Yeah but I rarely talk to girls and when I do they don't want to hear about physics and computing. Do no, I don't do that.

It's a pretty awesome tool to use to shut down any form of discussion.

My ex would do that to be constantly.

"How would you know? You're a man, you've never had to go through what I go through".

Wait... WItwaitwait

Are the "Feminists" on tumblr actually saying only men talk down to people? Being a condescending ass has nothing to do with sex or gender.

Supposedly it's when you're being condescending and overly explanative specifically because she's a woman.

I tend to do it ironically, then proceeding to push their shit in if they think I was for real.
