Fellas…we need to talk…
Quite a few of you have a really bad habit that needs to be addressed.
Maybe you don’t realize it or maybe you do and you just don’t care, but this mansplaining thing has just gone way too far.
The women you encounter are smart and they really don’t need YOU (or ME) explaining very obvious things to them.
Get it? Got it? Good!
Now let’s look at some funny stories that women shared about mansplaining situations.
1. We live right up here.
That’s not condescending at all!
what’s the dumbest thing that’s ever been mansplained to you?
mine is one time I was driving and my husband let me know our home was “up ahead on the left.”

2. This is called a “salad bar”.
Wow…that’s weird…
A completely random man once approached me to explain how the cafeteria worked. Grill here, salad bar over there, then you take it up to the cash to pay. To this day, I do not understand what made him think I needed that explanation.

3. Let me explain…
Yeesh…just don’t talk. At all.
I was talking about how IUD strings hang down and you can feel them and confirm it’s still in place. He said I was talking about a tampon and then explained what an IUD is.

4. Back to work!
See? It’s not hard at all!
A man tried to tell me that childbirth wasn’t that difficult, because women “used to go right back to work in the homes and fields immediately after giving birth”. This was after me stating that I was exhausted and extremely weak for days after going through 20 hours of labor.

5. You have to crank it.
This is cringeworthy.
When I first moved into my current apt the landlord had someone come replace a big kitchen window with 2 small ones on each side and the guy installing it finished up by explaining to me how to open said windows (and lock them) like Id never seen crank handles before.

6. You have to streamline.
Trust him on this one.
Just this morning my husband told me it was foolish to have different-sized pads, they all do the same thing just streamline for efficiency

7. Oh, dear.
Gotta laugh at that one.
One of my dear male friends will mansplain something to me that I taught him! LOL

8. How does this work?
I’m thankful that he told you.
I was buying a gift for my dad at a sporting goods store, and randomly grabbed a can coozie at the checkout. The man at the register started in on “Oh, those are great. See, you put a beer can inside this, and it keeps your hand from getting cold. Get it?”

9. NOTHING ALIKE.
To an Art History teacher, no less.
the dif between Manet and Monet… and I teach university art history and also they are NOTHING ALIKE

10. Here’s how to do it.
Get a grip.
A man argued with me how to properly wrap a cable.

11. I need a male!
Insecure much?
that he wanted a male associate to assist him getting fitted for a suit even though i was a manager and had been fitting men for suits for 2 years in that store

12. They sound like brain surgeons.
That’s what they were, right?
A superior I had in the Navy tried to explain why using tampons or pad were for fun and not necessity.
I also had another tell me that when a women really doesn’t want sex then their vagina doesn’t allow the penis to enter.

13. It was broken.
Shouldn’t have questioned her, dude.
I told a gas station attendant the pump was broken and he said you just have to really get the nozzle in there. Then he came outside with me to demonstrate. Turns out the pump was broken.
