‘Splainin’ To Do

Men do in fact do a lot of โ€œmansplaining.โ€ That is, they tell women how something works or should work. Iโ€™ve seen it myself and know it happens.

But women also frequently engage in โ€œwomainsplaining.โ€ Their version of the above is to tell men how they should feel or emotionally react to something. Seen that a lot, too.

I guess both genders do it when they believe someone has encroached on a domain they โ€œown.โ€
