Conversation with ex girlfriend: Her: I just got my car back from the garage. They told me to keep an eye on the tyre wear, but I don’t really know what that means or how to do it. Me: I can show you how to do that if you like? Her: I don’t need you to mansplain things to me! MAN KNOW CAR THING, WOMAN NO DO.

I stopped myself from correcting her interpretation of mansplaining, because it was clear that any man was forbidden from communicating normally with her.

Let me mansplain to you what mansplaining actually means.

Its only mansplaining if she already knows what it means. She clearly doesn’t know. That’s just plain explaining.

Plane explaining, isn’t that when you go into depth about 2 dimensional planar topology?
