Its a shitty term, but also the most direct and succinct way of stating a problem women feel they have, which is to say: Mansplaining is when men feel they have the natural born right to explain things to a woman, as well as a tendency to interrupt or talk over them.

Argument can be had over how prevalent this is and how much of a problem it really is, but its important to understand the terms being used, because I too used to off-handedly dismiss any mention of the word "mansplain" because of how
FUCKING
STUPID
it sounds.
>>
>>54916800

No, "mansplaining" is just a way for women to get mad about other people knowing more than them, and instead of getting more knowledge, just try to frame it as some stupid civil rights issue.

It's not mansplaining when the woman is wrong.
>>
>>54916800
>>54916814
I always just interpreted it as "Explaining something nobody asked you to explain." or, in a pinch, "Explaining something under the assumption they don't understand despite not having evidence they don't understand".

Like if someone asks "oh you play tabletop games?" and they get the response "yeah, they're these group-based storytelling games that use dice as a conflict resolution mechanic to make things interesting and incorporate consequences for failure and risk in decision making".
Whereas "Yeah, I've currently got a good group with a well rounded party, we just finished up Curse of Strahd."

It unfortunately seems to be being used as a defense against being corrected though, as people would rather be ignorant than wrong, because the alternative is to basically just verbally tell someone "you should google it, because you're wrong" and then walking off.

I think it's a pretty general experience but it's a significant frustration for Gurl Gamers. It's probably statistically logical to go "they're female, they probably don't play ttrpgs so I'll explain what I'm talking about" but to the women that DO play ttrpgs it would get ludicrously frustrating very very fast.

>>54916814
No it's not mansplaining when the woman is wrong. That's the point of the term.

It's a badly formatted flowchart and the phrase is kind of silly. I don't think the grognards and weebs on here can really mock people for using stupid sounding phrases in their subculture.

The opposite situation is equally frustrating, when some girl goes "yes i am a tabletop gamer, and yes i am a girl, now don't hit on me silly neckbeards <3" and you think to yourself that cool, she seems to be into the hobby and you start discussing some wellknown game or what her latest group played, and she has no idea what you're talking about. 10 minutes later you realize she watched her older brother play two sessions 15 years ago and that's her cumulative roleplaying experience.

This isn't a gender thing though. Certain people of either sex will explain and talk over others of either sex if they believe themselves to be more knowledgeable and their own words more important.

Yeah wouldn't really call that 'mansplaining' though. You as a man did not act like those retards. The term ought to be retardsplain.

>>54916800
No it's not. Mansplaining is a condescending term used by feminists to refer situations where MRAs and Egalitarians complain about the inequality suffered by men, such as marriage laws.

Labeling things as mansplaining is also how feminists disregard any complaint made by a man without having to actually address any of the issues brought up.

Sure, it may be boring to be lectured on something you aren't interested in, but fucking damni, the other person is taking the time of their day to try and teach you, at least you could appreciate the effort instead of labeling him as an asshole.

I have a friend who is heavily interested in World War 2, specifically the planes that were used in World War 2. As these are included in his list of interests, he likes to talk about them. I also find some of these talking points interesting, like how they had to design a mechanism that would fire their forward guns at a rate exactly matching the rotation of the propellor, as the propellor has varying RPM, and the current designs were not able to place a gun in front of the propellor. Other talking points in this topic I do not find as interesting, like the relative turning or climbing speeds of a Spitfire vs a German fighter plane. Even if I'm not interested in the current conversation I will ask questions or add comments, because he's my friend and I want him to be able to talk about things that interest him. But it still isn't enjoyable for me to listen to him talk about these topics that I do not find interesting.

Sad thing is, beta cunts desperate for any form of positive (or at least non hostile) female attention no matter how fleeting are partially to blame for this trend. If they could keep their spaghetti and dicks in their pants for even an attosecond then the grrrl gamersâ„¢ that look to do this shit would get bored and find some other medium to get their attention fix from.
The other group to take the blame are the grognards that immediately assume all women are like this and go into defensive overdrive and try to exclude these sorts, which ironically makes even more women that lack genuine interest want to get in, only now instead of the vapid attention whores you've got the sjw attention whores trying to barge into the hobby in the name of smashing the patriarchyâ„¢.

At my lgs there are gaming night every first wensday of the month, a lot of people have their first game here it attract a lot of people Into the hobby, whenever I ran or played game, the girls in the group weren't obnoxious or similar to the idea grognard have about them, some where good roleplayer other were kind of bland with their character (but after all if it's your first time playing a ttrpg you are often shy with your roleplaying,especially if you play with total stranger)

>That good feel when I never had any problems during all the game I ran and played, no that guy, no that girl, only fun and good time

It's not because of your gender that I think I know more than you. It's because I'm an autist who spent the last 30 years obssessively researching everything to do with a specific subject.

I'm not a nice guy, at all. But I'm an asshole to everyone, man or woman.

Unrelated to mansplaining but that situation reminded me of my own

>Playing 40K years ago, playing Ork
>Fighting a Necron who has Nightbringer out alone while his 'crons hold the objective
>I throw my Warboss and his 20 boyz at the thing INSTEAD of objective
>My regular boyz go for objective and fail
>My Warboss gets in and kills his NightBitch
>He wins.

>Opponent proceeds to rage about my play style
>"If you sent your warboss & 'ard boyz at my objective you could of taken it by turn 3!"
>I reply that my Warboss goes for the biggest, meanest, killiest thing. Both RP AND logical play for me.
>"THAT ISNT HOW IT IS MEANT TO BE DONE"
>He proceeds to pick my list apart and my tactics
>Keeps doing this while I am packing
>Bitching about how I should have biker nobz and other shit I didn't own
>Follows me out of the store telling me how to play my fucking army
>Stands there telling me how I will never win in a tournament as I am putting my boxes into my car
>Gives me the finger as I drive off

Worse experience ever.

I knew a guy like that.

We superglued all his models to the ceiling.

Fuckoff anon who is definitely false flagging. I don't discriminate my ego. I equally assume that everybody is a fucking moron and needs shit spoonfed to them on account of their utter stupidity.
>>
>>54933735
Gonna agree with this guy. Any amount of time in chain retail will convince you that humanities standard is moron.

I also live in America so conversing with the average person has left me convinced that 90% of humanity is still a peasant even if feudalism is over, and if they lived in the past they would have never had the initiative to move upwards in class. You would be shocked how many Americans do not even know that the Holy Roman Empire existed, or what it even was (you mean Germany?), or if they do it's only because of videogames/memes.

I mean on the flip side I've only ever played with one girl who didn't ever learn and had to ask every turn in combat how to dagger.

The others - even the complete newbies - have been fine.
As ever shits just anecdotes either way
>>
>>54916132
I've been guilty of that exact thing. It's easy to get so enthusiastic about a game or topic you get caught up in what ~fantastic knowledge~ you could teach someone, and as a result you forget common decency and don't even consider the possibility they might know as much/more about the subject than you.

Take it from me: people who do this aren't assholes, most of the time, just socially deaf and way too much into their autistic interests. (Obviously it's still kind of rude, and awkward as fuck for the other person.)

>you can't give simple explanations on a matter if you don't have a masters degree on it

>you forget common decency and don't even consider the possibility they might know as much/more about the subject than you.

what? they're adults, they should be able to drop the information that they actually know what they're talking about.
>>
>>54916814
That might be true in practice but the definition of mansplaining is not "a way for women to get mad about other people knowing more than them". Hell even if the two are necessarily equivalent that still isn't the definition because the equivalence is not inherently obvious.
>>
>>54934077
And it's also very probable they don't know shit about an obscure subject you know a lot about.
If I begin to talk about something that I think is not known by the majority, I will explain it when I talk about it, unless the other person participate in the conversation with his own in depth knowledge of the subject.
>>
>>54928528
Literally never happened. Stop talking shit
>>
>>54934575
Generally it's considered rude and weird to not ask before you go at length about a topic.

>>54934203
The issue is mostly autists failing to acknowledge the "haha, yeah, I know this already" because SURELY there must be something cool this person doesn't know about.
(Spoilers: if they said they already know, then either they're telling the truth or they don't care. If you're too caught up in your own erudition or too proud to consider that someone knows as much as you about your favorite topic, that's when the trainwrecks happen.)
>>
>>54928528
It's also extraordinarily common for women to ignore men because the woman thinks they know what needs to be done about everything they are involved in.

And then they complain to hell and back that no one told them why what they were doing wouldn't work.

t. female as well, you stuck up self centered bitch

>>54918109
I can't believe this shitlord is mansplaining at us right now

>>54919857
"All the bitterness and cuntiness you feel nonstop seems to be absent, as they congratulate each other for being victorious, and happily learn from someone who defeated them."

I don't know what gay hippy commune that anon is thinking of. Even at an all male table there's always somebody who's a bit cunty and sometimes he is me
>>
>>54919321
They didn't act that way because they're men, they acted that way because they're fucking retarded.
>>
>>54936685
You don't need to be a supreme sperglord to think a woman in your predominantly male hobby can't possibly be competent already, or at least not as knowledgeable as you. Normies do it too.
>>
>>54916800
> Mansplaining is when men feel they have the natural born right to explain things to a woman, as well as a tendency to interrupt or talk over them.

Because women usually don't know shit, even if they are in the same field of work as you.
>>
>>54917261
>No it's not mansplaining when the woman is wrong. That's the point of the term.
But women are always wrong.

>>54928693
>Because you assumed she wouldn't know.
Why would anyone assume that a woman has any idea about when the fuck she is talking about. Did you actually leave your basement at some point and actually work with women?
>>
>tfw you're an attractive and outgoing man who gets lots of attention from cute girls and doesn't need to construct an artificial worldview about roasties being the devil in order to make yourself feel better about your self-created situation

Feels amazing, for the record.
