Womansplaining

Womansplaining When a woman overconfidently explain to a man how he should act in the world, elaborate emotions or behave with other women, without actually knowing much about how men's everyday experience. Womansplaining involves mostly fields that have been traditionally female, such as social relationships management, emotions, and it often uses basic psychological words to add credibility. It derives from the central position women's opinions assumed after feminism, and it is stressed by the importance given by media to these. Womansplaining is more difficult to detect than mansplaining, because many men undergoing womansplaining are self-conscious and they do not protest against this patronizing attitude. These men give great importance to the woman's explanation, trying to learn something they think they cannot figure out themselves, especially when it comes to "how to get women to like them" or "how to be a proper man".
