Can someone mansplain mansplaining to me? It seems like any time someone with a beard inhales sharply.

Kind of like how manspreading is men sitting down.

And the male gaze is men looking at things.

Mansplaining is when you are a male and you open your mouth to say something. It might have been used properly in the past but now it's just a buzzword used to silence people.

It does seem to be a way to shut men down without making any kind of point. Look at some of the responses in this thread.

Another “emotional invalidation” or “NPD” or “weaponized incompetence.”
