I think it's fair to point out that there is a trend where men will do this to women in situations where they would never do it to another man. The way people use the term annoys me more often than not but I still think it's a valid concept.

You underestimate my need of superiority, every one will deserve my explanation, men, women, children, fish, cat and dog, and the explanation of my explanation and it's prequel and sequel. Yep, I have adhd.

I have a little yoda sitting on my desktop screen. Sometimes I treat it like a rubber ducky.

When you're sitting in on a condescending lecture, how do you know that the person giving it wouldn't be just as condescending towards a man as well though? I feel like there are two answers here:

  1. You don't, and they could just be generally condescending.

  2. This is a trend with this man towards women, and in my opinion in the term "mansplaining" isn't harsh enough. Call them what they are, misogynistic assholes.
