โToday, Iโd like to briefly explain to you about mansplaining. Now I know that you two guys know this but please bear with me while I try to explain it to the girls. Mansplaining is where a man has to explain something to a female in minute detail because he believes that they couldnโt possibly understand it without his explanation. Mansplaining comes from two words: Man, from Latin meaning leader, and Explain which comes from French and means to get off the plane, it is a metaphor for spreading information from a central vessel. Now some feel that mansplaining is condescending, but I donโt want to use such large words that will confuse you. Put simply, condescending is another metaphor and comes from Greek for a man, Con, walking down the stairs of the metaphorical French plane to share with the world that the Greeks are the people who started civilisation, which is the concept that men will work while women stay home and housekeep, and take care of their man. I have so much more to share with you about mansplaining, including some simple examples to help you understand, but I understand that you girls probably need a break to take in all that I have said so far. When we come back Iโll explain why a womanโs physiology means they need more breaks during the day than men.โ

Just pretend we're related - brothers and sisters - then no-one will report us for not social distancing.
That'll work, won't it?

Yes, I know it sounds silly today, but back in 2020 during the great plague, a lot of people protested that wearing a mask was against their civil rights.

Did you just hear - that guy over there - making an attempt at explaining - mansplaining.
Any of you ladies - like to help him out.
