femsplaining

The explanation of feminist concepts, often to a man in a condescending and rude manner.

I do want to experience Feminist Boredom—when femsplaining and fem… doing (?) become periodically recursive and repetitive, but in a nice vacationy way that is very much a part of working toward something—and Feminist Arrogance, which is fun and about just deciding that everyone who doesn’t know already is pretty stupid.

The femsplaining continues throughout the movie, as the girls point out how offensive and problematic sexist frat humor can be.

An explanation by a woman to a man about topics that the woman assumes the man doesn't know. Often condescending in nature.

Mansplaining is a bit of this year’s wombspeak, a coinage of great self-satisfaction and smugness which attempts to put down reconciling reality to facts, naming fables when they are fables, and contesting any of the dogmas of the enlightened sisterhood, as mere condescension from the other gender. It should be paired with “femsplaining” which is of course pure unshampooed truth — as determined, of course, by when and if it works for the cause.

The fact of the matter is that women are given so little leverage to be as boring and patronising as men in the office, home or parliament, we don't really have as much evidence of femsplaining as we do mansplaining. Thus, femsplaining remains a myth, much like the gender pay gap and female orgasm.
