Some guy just mansplained space to an actual fucking astronaut.

how is that mansplaining? Oh no, a guy stated something he knows to a woman, what are we gonna do? what’s wrong with a man explaining to a woman what he knows? When the fuck have women been above having shit explained to him?

Honestly, this manplaining shit is just a sexist way to silence men. It’s disgusting.

He thinks he’s correcting her and is “explaining” to the expert the thing she’s talking about.

“Sexist way to silence men”.

😂

“How is this mansplaining?”

Mansplaining: When a man assumes he has greater knowledge in something than a woman, and tries to “educate” her, without first establishing what her actual level of knowledge is.

Mansplaining, Ultimate Dick Edition: When a man who is not an expert or specialist in a field tries to “educate” a woman who is an expert or specialist in it. Bonus point for misapplying or misunderstanding terms, or confusing laymen’s usage of a word with scientific usage, but it still counts even without that.

Random guy tries to explain the laws of thermodymanics to a fucking qualified astronaut? Not only is that mansplaining, it’s a perfect example of Ultimate Dick Edition.

Kim Goodwin‏: “I have had more than one male colleague sincerely ask whether a certain behavior is mansplaining. Since apparently this is hard to figure out, I made one of them a chart.”
