What is Mansplaining? I'm confused

I come to the O-T bearing gifts. Was discussing through texts with a bumble match (she's a journalism major working for a news organization that hates Trump) Without having presented any actual views I was told that I take myself too seriously and that I'm cynical for believing that all humans have motives/agendas. When told that she was making a judgement about me without having met me she said she had felt overwhelmed by a previous dating experience
quote:
Her: I think I’m in weird place about guys sort of forwardly presenting their opinions especially on politics etc ...Just came off of a super bad date experience with a heavy mansplainer
KirkLazarus: Ahh I see
Her: Went on a date with him and felt stuck for hours bc he was really sneaky about it. Left realizing the extent and felt like... intellectually violated
KirkLazarus: Can you give an example? I’m curiously wondering if I’ve ever done something similar
Her: I’d rather not if that’s cool. It shook me up sort of. It was a good learning experience for me though

Was her nickname Kibbles?

Run. Run away from this chick.

It must be hard for her to live her life being such a weak minded pussy.

It gets better

Her: He basically realized that I was a good audience in having similar politics views and then proceeded to act like he was teaching me something for the next three hours. Like there was no possible way I could be as intelligent as he was bc I’m just a woman ie: the mansplain
KirkLazarus: Yes that is obnoxious of him haha
Her: But homie this happens in small ways all the time. Guys do it without realizing. Everyone wants to be validated and dropping your views on a woman is a very masculine way of getting that affirmation

A convenient way of avoiding or dismissing a different perspective which may inconveniently reveal a worldview which denies objectivity to be internally inconsistent.

Two takeaways.
1. You are in the friend zone.
2. You are in the friend zone of a future crazy cat lady.

Nah. I don't know how to reply though without being a man explaining something

She's either going to die old and lonely or she'll turn lesbian to keep herself from being lonely.
I can't imagine anyone other than a raging beta staying with that kind of woman.

This gave me a brain aneurysm

Ok I'm not reading all this but on bumble the chick has to talk to you first. So she wants the dick. Step your game up.

When you don't allow women to dominate conversation = mansplaining

A catch all term that wanna be feminist use when some one gives their opinion in a condescending way, implying that they know a great deal more about the subject than their audience.
Us guys just call it being an a-hole. Or a know it all. Or a pretentious prick. But now we live in a society that has to have a label for every single microagreesion.
Back in the day they just called it being an a-hole.

She was trying to tell you to GTFO but here you are trying to make your self a better person for her.

A Bumble conversation should consist of
Hey
Hey what's up bitch. Let me get that pussy wet
End of story

Jesus, is this how your conversations go to pick up women? Super cringy.

A fake word? And if used by anyone, you should never speak to them again.
