I thought this was me_irl or something at first, he's obviously joking.

[–]caljl 257 ポイント258 ポイント  (9子コメント)

I feel like he may be continuing the joke. I could be wrong but I wouldn't really say this is mansplaining.

You know, I would love to think that the reply is a joke, but given that I've had my job, my research, my experience of being a woman in academia and my own body mansplained to me (and that's just in the last 6 months) I honestly can't tell anymore.

If you honestly can't tell anymore then maybe you need a man to explain it to you.

It struck me as a joke too, a not so funny one. But I guess if you deliver it á la Mike Birbiglia it could work!

Even if it's not a joke, it's a dude explaining to a women what men would like. Does that really count as "mansplaining"?

[–]Ylajali_2002 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

because women are obviously too stupid to understand thumb tacks on your dick aren't gonna feel good

we don't need any more dudebros in here to mansplain mansplaining to us. bye bye troll :-)

If the dude thought she was serious is it "mansplaining"

bye bye troll :-)

what's it like being this much of a legbeard?

[–]purrattack 113 ポイント114 ポイント  (10子コメント)

Uggh, I got mansplained by a dude about my experience as a woman in IT... in a post by a woman who was sharing her own crappy experience. (See my post history)

After explaining to him how insulting it was, he then added I attacked him personally and that I can't have normal conversations with people. At this point, I'm just going to give up.

There's enough projection there to burn a hole in a movie theatre wall.

As a man, what actually happened to you was…

Wow that was quite the gamble; what's it like having balls you can see from space? Biking must be uncomfortable...

One of my friends was hiring for a programming position, below the one she held for another couple weeks before moving to management.

One potential hire refused to explain what he'd done on a project because he didn't think she'd understand, tried to explain what php etc is to her, and just kept doubling down on her not understanding what he did.

He did not get the job.

Sounds like he's a narcissistic asshole.

Most internet trolls are.

[–]dontneeddota2 143 ポイント144 ポイント  (20子コメント)

Yeah but come on... that reply was clearly a joke.

[–]GracieBalloonthat's Bitch Goddess to you 19 ポイント20 ポイント  (16子コメント)

The "gift" was clearly a joke. There was no reason for the reply.

I found both funny.

Uh, maybe because it's fun to partake in humor with other people and share a laugh? It's a way for us to connect with others in a positive way. Jesus.

[–]Ylajali_2002 -2 ポイント-1 ポイント  (6子コメント)

No. It's a way for men to one up a funny comedienne and center the conversation on them. Because men can't stand not being the center of attention.

[–]TheRipsawHiatusI'm either going to get ice cream or commit a felony. 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (5子コメント)

Jesus Christ. I'm fucking done with this vitriolic sub. Go ahead a make up reasons to be miserable and hate men if you want, but I'm done.

[–]Ylajali_2002 -3 ポイント-2 ポイント  (4子コメント)

I can't even begin to understand how hard it must be for you not to be the center of the conversation for once.

Fragile masculinity in action.

At least let me play you out on my tiny violin.

I'm a woman... but thanks?

[–]Ylajali_2002 -2 ポイント-1 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Doesn't mean you don't have internalized misogyny.

Maybe you should educate yourself first before demanding that WoC do the emotional labor of explaining the basics of feminism to you.

Ah, I see. You're a troll that should be ignored. I wish I could say the same for everyone else here, but sadly they're sincere...

[–]Ylajali_2002 -2 ポイント-1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ah, I see. You're a troll that should be ignored. Nevertheless, I'm going to go ahead and respond to you . . .

The gift was a joke.

The reply was a joke.

This post was a whoosh.

[–]dontneeddota2 43 ポイント44 ポイント  (2子コメント)

I don't think there needs to be a reason to take a joke and run with it.

[–]GracieBalloonthat's Bitch Goddess to you 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (1子コメント)

It looks more like he stumbled and fell with it to me. But I am a cynic, so YMMV.

[–]dontneeddota2 42 ポイント43 ポイント  (0子コメント)

It ain't Louis CK but I also don't think it's mansplaining.

No, see... The gift was made by a woman. Women are not funny, as we all know, so it just can't be a joke!

[–]caljl 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

If the reply is also a joke then I don't see anything wrong with continuing it and I can't really see why anyone should. Unless it's not a joke then...well I've lost the majority of my dwindling faith in humanity.

Jeez this just seems like both people were making a joke to me.
