It's when the movie scientist/hacker rattles off some technical lingo and the dumb chunkhead of a hero interrupts with "whoa! in english, please"

It's when you try to explain the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation to a woman while she rambles on about how microwaves will kill you.

my favorite use of the "-splaining" suffix is "whitesplaining".

The experience of someone who thinks they're an expert in everything and won't shut the gently caress up even when talking to a legitimate expert on the subject they are rambling about is pretty universal. I know this because I'm an expert in everything.

Getting something explained to you that you already know sounds like one of those things that happens to everyone in everyday life that you have to learn how to deal with rather than just getting indignant about and filling yourself with seething anger acting like everyone else has a problem.

i also suspect that people with vaginas have been dealing with this for longer than recorded history, and probably not becoming indignant or full of seething anger so much as deepening in a superhuman wealth of patience. that they get indignant or seethingly angry every hundredth time it happens probably shouldn't be held against them.

the dumb poo poo endlessly dribbling out of your dad's mouth into your mom's ear is probably what gave her the patience to raise you, lol. the circle of life.

the real problem w gay and lesbian parents is that they don't have this disparity in mental function to generate patience in relation to the verifiably retarded things kids think say and do.

in that case you will definitely need a penis to theorize it.

It's when someone is confidentially wrong about something, but they're so confident and insistent about it that it bends the fabric of reality and becomes true. This is the hidden power of Man.

nomadologique posted:i think it's the subset of this that happens when a person with a penis thinks a person with a vagina is mentally stunted bc of said vagina In the example that has been cited, the explainee's complaint is that she infers from the focused look on the mansplainer's face that he thinks he's superior to her and not just some autistic dude talking about the trains he likes (or a normal guy talking about the trains he likes). Maybe you could cite another example that fits that narrow subset you've defined that doesn't rely on having a 6th sense for intent. e- I'm sure that there really are jerks like this in the world, but learning to deal with narcissists is part of living on the earth. These sorts of people are psychologically incapable of learning. We can only wait for them to die and hope that more aren't being made to take their place.

"vagenying": when a woman doesn't know poo poo about a specific topic but won't let anyone explain it to her because she thinks that not being assumed to know every detail of every possible topic is somehow degrading to her
