Mansplaining: Worst Catch Phrase Ever

There is a new catch phrase that is setting the Feminist
blogosphere a buzz. It's called "Mansplaining" it was
first used a couple of years ago, but in the past six
months it has taken off, and is widely and wrongly used
in debates.

Mansplaining means you are beginning condensing,
patronizing and feel that you are correct because you
are the man in the conversation.

How utterly ridiculous that concept is. It takes any
robust debate down to the gutter level, and is equivalent
to little kids who would scream out "Your
an idiot" during arguments with their classmates.

If there is a debate on any subject, it doesn't have to be
political, it could even be about Apples or Pears, if you
have a different opinion, a different point of view with
a poster, and that poster is female and you are
male, the word "MANSPLAINER" will be shouted
from the rooftops from anyone who disagrees
with your point of view.

For example just the other day there was a debate on the
always interesting "hand mirror" site, about if the Hamilton Casino
is being honest about wanting to open 24/7 to attract high
end punters from Asia, or are they really after, the local's
money, which could lead to social economic problems.

I took the view that they are after the Visiting Asian Market,
while the poster "Stargazer" believe this wasn't the case and
they were after the local market, thus causing problems for
the local community.

Well, let the Mansplaining comments begin, apparently I was
Mansplaining, and then I was Mansplaining again by explaining
that I just have a different point of view.

Of course it wasn't a case of mansplaining, I was just
pointing out my thoughts on the subject, like the
poster "Stargazer" was pointing out their's.

I wonder how the posters would of commented if I had
of been a female? they couldn't use the term Mansplainer,
and that is where using the term Mansplainer falls down.


You are basically saying any male that is debating a female
on any given topic is a Mansplainer, and that is not even close to
reality.

Oh for the record, I thought the poster
"Stargazer" was male, although it didnt matter to me what gender
she was.

It matters to some people though.

Just curious.

According to the feminist blogsphere, itm was created by a Feminist Blogger a couple of years back.

There's a great moment in one of the episodes where Lucy uses the term - "WHOA boy - You've got some 'SPLAIN' to do."

if I don't know this term then it's clearly bullshit. Which it is. Q, E, and a big ol' testosterone-infused D...

By some feminist bloggers, during debates and comments thread, its getting to the crazy stage, where there cant
be a debate at all on carious topics.

see eye to eye with. Waste of my time and theirs.

Its not so much debates, than discussions, that the word mansplaining is banded around.
It's getting to the point that the once lively discussions are just overtaken by the
people who can scream the most.

who argued sincerely that women were inferior mentally. They believed women just simply were not as intelligent as men. I think the term nails them perfectly. I can't tell you how many times men were condescending about any number of subject. For example, I'm an artist and even though some men knew that they would still lecture me about what art is. But in all honesty I don't know any men who still think that. At least none I talk to.

Over on the newzealand feminist blogosphere though, its used in nearly ever thread/post on any subject, its just thrown out
there.

Patriarchy produces insufferable idjits who regularly practice "mansplainin'". Glad to hear there's a label for it.:D
