So I recently started Uni and there's a guy in my film lecture who just. Talks when he doesn't NEED to. The way he speaks is patronising, and I'm not gonna lie it's very infuriating and he's just mansplaining at this point. Like we are talking about Mise-En-Scene leave Transformers out of this????????

He may or may not be ND, but regardless it pisses everyone off.

It's been going on for 3 weeks, and I'm THIS close to cutting him off.

Will update during week 4 to see if I lose my shit lmao.

For reference, this was a post about how Turning Red was nearly called "My Neighbor Toronto" i then called the guy out for mansplaining, cause not only did he say the comment i screenshot, but he also said about why the letter "u" was dropped in the first place.

But i can't believe, when calling a dude out for mansplaining, i got mansplained. And the thing is, people throw that term out all the time and it pisses me off, in fact, i have had people ask for help/advice, and when i have given it and OP thanked me for my comment, someone else has responded saying i was mansplaining! So it is a term i am not a huge fan of. But when you're explaining something to someone when they clearly already know that thing, that's literally the definition of it! Then how are you gonna mansplain that mansplaining didn't happen when it clearly did!?! Also, just worthy to note, the dude who mansplained me referred to both the men by their names, yet called the woman "woman" and never addressed her by her name. So in my comment i repeatedly addressed her by her name, and just said "person" when referring to the mansplainer.

this is almost funny:

she has a doctor title in front of her name. he has emojis around his.

(assuming they are both cis,) she has a vagina and uterus, he does not.

she has a very professional, well lit photograph as a profile picture. his picture is in a karaoke bar where his shirt is not even properly tucked in.

and YET. he feels like he can disagree, with no actual arguments proving his point.

imagine having the ego of a cishet white man.

"jason is a knockoff watered down percy" NO hear me out, jason actually parallels annabeth immensely, sharing SO many similarities with her personality, not percy, in this essay I will-

Sha Hualing: I think your husband is cheating on you

Luo Binghe: Keep speaking ill about my Shizun and I'll rip your tongue out!

Sha Hualing: Just listen for a second! I heard Mobei-Jun's weird husband serenading Lord Shen with a romantic song!

Luo Binghe: ...what song?

Earlier

Shang Qinghua, very off key: We're no strangers to love~ You know the rules and so do I!

Back to the present

Luo Binghe: Oh, that is apparently a normal human custom. Singing that song unexpectedly to another is akin to a minor act of war. Shizun will probably retaliate by standing motionless by Shang-shishu with his arms spread out

Sha Hualing: Human culture is so weird

To me, this week has been one long day. My neighbors have a standing hammock on their wrap around porch and lie there to read. I think it’s a great idea. Today’s serial episode is from Angel Hunt: Episode 44: The Randolph…

Mansplaining

If a man 'mansplains' something to you, thank him. He has used his valuable time to ensure you understand something better. He is not to know if you already have that information or not and he thought you were worthy enough to at least inform you. It is a complement when a man takes the time to 'mansplain', it is his way of helping you be a better person.

Always welcome mansplaining and always say thank you when he was gracious enough to give you that time - he didn't have to. It's just another example of how men are being helpful toward girls. We need to appreciate it more.
