@danhon I'm curious to find a German word for "mansplaining".

Maybe “Männerkonzeptsrückerklärung”

@janl what do you think?

@thomasfuchs @danhon @janl it's mansplainen in German. We use the same expression. The sentence in German should read
"antworten Sie nicht, um mir meinen eigenen Beitrag zu mansplainen."

@jensscholz @danhon @janl well yeah, but I feel like there should be a over-the-top German word for this, because reasons

@thomasfuchs @jensscholz @danhon @janl The French won so hard with “Mecspliquer“ the Germans didn’t bother playing.

@thomasfuchs @jensscholz @danhon @janl if it doesn't have to be one word I'd say "väterlich belehren"
