It's hard to explain jokes, be patient with me.

And if you DO have to explain a joke, your partner might then accuse you of "mansplaining" - which leads to ANOTHER visit to the doghouse.

smoke 'em if you got 'em

Mansplaining - a simple, normal explanation that annoys a female because she has to acknowledge that you know more than her on a particular topic.

Mansplaining - a simple, normal explanation that annoys a female because she has to acknowledge that you know more than her on a particular topic.

Were you just mansplaining mansplaining? Which means, were you meta-mansplaining?

But you left out the OTHER half of the explanation - that it MIGHT annoy her because she DID already know that and is therefore insulted by the insinuation of her ignorance.

 

[DickyP]

Dunno - as far as I know I haven't yet been accused, at least not to my face, of mansplaining. I would say that I haven't noticed that men explain things differently to women than they do to men.

2 days ago this was grass.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

That happened last year in New Orleans - and it stayed a couple of days. But then, we only get snow on the average about every 7 years. Kind of late in the season, though, even for Wisconsin?

 

[RonPaii]

We start warming up in March so heavy snow this time of year is normal. What is surprising is how many locals for get that. Some of the stores removed winter equipment if favor of spring. A few weeks ago the lakes ice was able to support cars for the annual sturgeon fishing season.

[The_Doc_Man]

What happens when the genders are reversed?

Can't speak for everyone, but, usually, chaos when I didn't understand her explanation. Which sometimes I don't.

 

[DickyP]

What happens when the genders are reversed?

I've never tried explaining to a cross-dresser, so I don't know

 

[The_Doc_Man]

The ultimate problem in man-splaining from two people who have no claim of knowledge on the subject of being a man:

A lesbian lass from Khartoum
Brought a gay young lad to her room.
A terrible fight
lasted all night
Over who would do what and to whom.

Were you just mansplaining mansplaining? Which means, were you meta-mansplaining?

But you left out the OTHER half of the explanation - that it MIGHT annoy her because she DID already know that and is therefore insulted by the insinuation of her ignorance.

The reason that the word and meaning being "mansplaining" is totally useless and stupid is because it presumes the absence of an innocent situation like Dicky pointed out, that being that you explain something to a woman because you know more about it than she does or appears to. And because of the fact that we have no such word meant to protest when a woman explains something to a man. If you know more than me about it lady, go for it--womansplain me!

It was crazy. (Wisconsin). However, snow in March is totally normal, just not this much
