A feminist man should be able to understand the difference between mansplaining and simply explaining something while simultaneously being a man. The difference is the invalidation of the marginalized person’s expertise and experience as well as the general patronizing or condescending tone. The argument that the word “mansplain” is divisive is ridiculous. The only thing that’s divisive is the propensity for men to mansplain in the first place. Marginalized people should not have to suffer communicative indignities just to keep privileged people around. If those marginalized communities must be silenced or spoken down to in order for the privileged to stay, I would be just fine with showing those with unexamined privilege the door.
