I think I would have had a conversation with the manager at that point.

Ga (like lady gaga) Nash. GaNash, it's the god of chocolate!

wow. what do these idiots think women are? Aliens??

My bf once tried to explain to my DENTIST brother the difference between black and white fillings. He insisted that black ones are better because he "read an article online 10 years ago"

An older male gynecologist tried to explain to me, that all my pains are imaginary (it was a 2 week follow-up appointment after I was delivered to the same hospital unconscious from my period pain with my pants all soaked in blood and pain medication not working) and that I should see I psychiatrist instead or try other methods to seek attention from people, so I would not disturb doctors. "Periods are not that bad" - he said, "Look at men, we don't have to imagine sickness to get attention" - he said. Took some time to get the right diagnosis. It was not in my head.

Just because you speak it, doesn' t mean you... I got nothing, sorry.

are you joking? I'm a kid and I would've decked him too

the world is so messed up

And the speculum also clapped.

Act completely dumb. Let him tune it. Play something horrible. Retune it correctly. Then play something nice and see his face change!

I recommend to use the heaviest frying pan but she most likely would do this anyway.

Is penis a bad word now? I must have missed that memo.

I always want to know if they say sorry afterwards

Well, that's once instance where you'd have to think really hard about whether it would be worth losing a dose or stabbing him with your epipen

I've had the same, the guy told me at the end of the night: "thanks for helping me!" And mansplaining like 10 things to me. I literally worked there for 2 nights a week for a full year, he had worked there a couple of times and did one shift with me..

she's probably filing the divorce papers as we speak

Is this mansplaining though?

*Former boyfriend

ah, I see. tell me more about the things I've lived with for my whole life.

Just say "Thank you deary, now shush shush and move along, tut tut". And make those hand movements kindergarten teachers make when they are interrupted and send kids along.

ok. what. the. actual. hell.

Ehem.. Pardon?

They could start the conversation by asking a question about why she's wearing bees? Maybe asking if she really likes bees or asking why she likes bees? There are lots of ways to start a conversation that dont assume the person you are speaking to is completely ignorant of [insert any] topic.

That's just standard sexism.

Don't get me started on the Brexiteer crowd who insist that Britain isn't geographically part of Europe. Not politically - that point has already been addressed. These morons insist that the physical island itself (including NI, which I just overlook because my brain hurts at this point) is not part of the collection of countries, including those outside the EU, known as Europe. So... which of the seven continents does it belong in then?

yeah the wetness of the grass has nothing to do with it. Though if you fixed the lawnmower like my dad used to ( with much swearing and occassional flying objects) Mr. mansplain will stay away

I am at a loss for words with people.

They're only one letter different and both did art - basically the same person, right?

Wanna bet the mansplainer was white too, just for another extra layer of irony?

Worshipped.. Let's start a cult, ladies.

You wonder sometimes if they Mansplain because they are verbally reminding THEMSELVES on how to do something, but don't want to seem like idiots for talking to no one.

So the comment that is causing a ruckus is "he was trying to help". It misses the point. It was a parent, jumping in from the sidelines to comment on something they had never done. Regardless of gender it is not helpful

He was trying to steal it

because they know SOOOOO much more about it. (that was sarcasm by the way.)

Worse than mansplaining as there was no explanation. This is high level patronisation.

um... I'm lost for words

This is not mansplaining or toxic masculinity, this is just a husband trying to help when his wife is struggling.

TIL "coozie" is the name for those insulating can holder sleeve things. But I thought the main aim was to stop the can becoming warm and your hand not getting cold was just a side perk?

What do you mean? You just.. push a button! Is this for real?

I was once waiting for an elevator to get to my office. Obviously I pushed the button. And the little lamp was on. A guy entered the building, pressed the button again and said "You have to push the button, you know?" I was like: "Yeah, I did. And just because you just pushed it a second time, doesn't mean the elevator will be here any sooner". So yep. That happens.

Oh but are you supposed push the button or slap it. And should I press which floor I’m going to or which one I’m on.

Man here. I explained (to a man) that the UP button is for "I want to go up" and not "please elevator come up here".

Wait, what?

Oh yes, please tell me all about the intricacies of the button board kind man :D
