Not sure I wanna be penetrated by my washer though there’s a first time for everything. Maybe the agitator is the trick.

I’ve had a clam all my life. I am still somewhat confused about how laundry appliances are supposed to accomplish this task.

Trad is code for bangmaid. And when you have a child or two or age a little you get replaced.

Gross. Accurate. Took me way too long to understand why my friend’s dad was acting the way he was around 13-17. Decades later and it still sickens me.

I really want one

I just gave you a behavioral definition with examples and non-examples. I’m sorry, I don’t know how else to simplify it. I can only assume you’re willfully not understanding. Have a good day.

A soft place to land for my kids. I’m tired.

Let me be more clear:

An operational definition of “mansplaining”: If a man assumes he knows more about than a woman explicitly because he is a man and she is a woman. He explains to her x,y,z from this perspective.

Example: A man always talks over female peers, and explains answers during open ended discussions, because he believes he is better and more rational at open-ended discussions than his female counterparts regardless of any evidence of this, or even in spite of it.

Non-Example: A man informs a woman or others about a topic he is more interested or informed in, at a (possibly annoying) length.

It isn’t misandry to call out this bad behavior. Yes it cuts both ways, but we are talking about this term specifically.

I love to hear people nerd out on their passions. Personally I view it like a gift.

The difference between 20 and 30 mentally is huge. They are babies. That said, if you look super young you will naturally attract some of the worst types of people…be wary.

Yeah. Can’t imagine why women are being more selective of their male partners at all. This is nightmare fuel.

Right, just an example of the behavior of note in action. Correct, he was also a condescending asshole. I think those are prerequisites.

I had read a lot of the comments and wondered if it might be misconstrued

So I’ve noticed this post isn’t going over very well. I’d like to add a female perspective.

“Mansplain” isn’t meant to say you info dump or over explain a thing. It means that you assume you know more simply based on sex. It’s a type of misogyny that’s more typically overt in boomer culture, but it’s got a following in the whole Tate movement. I have rarely noticed it outside of that generation in the wild.

Now…Guys do infodump, which leads to this confusion, because a lot of people dislike that behavior too. Statistically women do speak less in mixed groups. Put it all together and it’s easy for people to over generalize a very specific behavior. It does happen, but compared to previous generations it’s not as common. It definitely occurs to women who work in non-traditional fields and take on non-traditional roles and I suspect that the same is true for men.

So when my ex-husband first went to vet tech school they, at some point, learned about menstruation. He proceeded to explain to me, a middle aged woman, how periods work, lol.

“It gets better” is an awful statement. You don’t really know that. Bit of a thought terminating cliche for people who still have such a chance.

The tapioca…I weirdly like it. Except I choke on it. I love the tea itself. I don’t love choking on it, but I forget the tapioca is in there half the time.

Yeah I just made a tube of cinnamon rolls guess I have to eat them all now

These are the ones upset about being lonely

In the 00s I was living on my own and working from 16. My teacher took me on as an aid and gave me the smallest of tasks. Most days she just let me sleep on her couch for the period. I was exhausted.
