A Medley of Mansplaining Malarkey: 20 Women Tell Their Most Memorable Stories

Every women agrees - there's nothing quite like being talked down to. And by that we mean, it is insanely frustrating, occasionally hilarious, and very often done by men who know significantly less than we do. Mansplaining seems to have existed since the beginning of time, but ever since we found a name for it, we've been noticing it in pretty much every corner of our lives. Whether it be in the workplace, at family functions, or in our very own relationships, the audacity of (some) men to speak on topics they know little to nothing about is a widespread phenomenon. We're lucky if we can get a word in edgewise.

So, when one Redditor asked women to write in their most ridiculous mansplaining stories, we jumped at the opportunity to read along. Behold, 20 hilarious and unbelievable instances of men explaining things that they simply didn't need to – we're talking periods and lactation, obvious jokes, job descriptions, and more! Cheezecakers, we're sure you have your own stories to add. Let's see them in the comments.
