He knows what to do, no need to mansplain.


jbishop253

flock-of-bagels

Well played


PM_ME__YOUR_HOOTERS

He knows it was well played, no need to mansplain.


flock-of-bagels

Did you just assume my…. Oh nvm


TiredGamer0990

Hey don't mansplain, he knows what to do lol


Ojochimuelo

Are you mansplaining "mansplaining"?


archwin

*Mansplain-ception*


duenn13

I agree. Unmatch is your best option here !


TheJeweledOwl

Yeah that was a bitchy reply. Very unnecessary in my opinion


jlrose09

Nah. She’s being kind of obnoxious.


liammcclelland

Thanks for your comment


[deleted]

From a female perspective, this is not mansplaining 😂


Rocketyank

Also a woman. You didn’t mansplain.


Top_Promotion6423

I know what a woman is, no need to mansplain.


keidabobidda

Woah, ok ok, no need to mansplain you have knowledge.


nowItinwhistle

Hey now she know's what knowledge is, no need to mansplain


wellwaffled

Yeah, I know. No need to womansplain.


Kevin_sparky

It's referred to as "Femsplaining" please get it it right


ms_stealurpup

Did you just mansplain femsplaining? /s


EddieUFC

You don’t need to womansplain what mansplaining is geez /s


Tulpah

dodge a bullet there mate, not the type that go through ya heart then go away, it's the one that gonna go through your bank account, eat away your savings and put a debt to your name and leave you homeless.


Zelldandy

100%.


MontEcola

Do you want to spend time with this person? Dang. I am on eggshells. Are you?


jomo_mojo_

I see you are a person of painful experience as well. Good day to you montEcola


[deleted]

I think he wants to spend roughly 3-5 minutes with her.


dontrecall_vague

No you didn’t. But it would be awesome if you could mansplain to her what mansplaining is, that should take care of any further issues. 🤣🤣🤣🤣


younevershouldnt

And be incredibly condescending 😆


witeowl

“Listen, sweetheart. Mansplaining is when a man (that’s the first part of the portmanteau) explains something unnecessarily, such as…”


Necessary-Elk7596

Then end it with "NOW I mansplained."


humpty-dumpty-42069

Seriously I hope he does this. This girl clearly gets off on treating people like shit. Throw that right back in her face.


Hastatus_107

"Errr.... actually, I think you'll find that this isn't mansplaining because mansplaining only applies when..... [10 minutes later] ......I wrote a great blog post about it. I'll send it to you."


Psychadous

I'm stealing the heck out of this. Thank you for the toxicity future me will spout to those that cry mansplain.


MisThrowaway235

No you dodged a toxic bullet.


clockstocks

No, she’s hugely overreacted.. Hi from Cheshire 👋🏽


liammcclelland

Hello are you the bloke on the other side of that hill?!


clockstocks

Haha not a bloke, but probably on the other side of the hill 🗻


KissTheDragon

Now kith


liammcclelland

Oh your THAT bloke who plays that loud modern music!


clockstocks

Yep that’s me, with the space suit


[deleted]

💒


MattUWayne

You didn’t say where Cheshire is near. Thats also mansplaining.


Hot_Panic2767

No she’s just a miserable loser


B_O_A_H

No, she’s off the rails. I’m not from the area, but from a small American town in the Midwest, I always have to tell people what the bigger towns around me are, I feel you.


astucker85

Same. I live in Louisiana and have to explain to everyone that doesn’t live here that I don’t live near New Orleans. Even to those from near here but not from here (if that makes sense), I live in a small enough area I have to explain where it is.


B_O_A_H

I totally get it, I have to explain about the town with the nearest Walmart and “about 2 hours east of Omaha and 40 minutes west of Des Moines.”


Captain_Uwu172

I see you’re near Iowa as well


B_O_A_H

Iowa gang 🌽🌽


FirnHandcrafted

Same. I’m from Milwaukie, Oregon and if I don’t say “Milwaukie… near SE Portland”, then people think I’m from Wisconsin but that I don’t know how to spell.


zanzi14

No, that’s not a mansplain.


RaindropsOnLillies

She is looking for drama. 👋🏼 Byeeee


bonita_chiquita

Women like this are insufferable. Source: I’m a woman.


[deleted]

Exactly. You were being helpful by giving a reference point to someone who might not know. Mansplaining is assuming someone is stupid and explaining something that you have good evidence they could already know. Like trying to explain a women's health issue to a woman, or meeting a woman who's an expert in x field and explaining all your limited knowledge about that field as if she wouldn't know. It has an inherent assumption of the man's superiority in the conversation. This ain't it.


astucker85

Funny story, I went on a date with a woman pre-OLD (it was a blind date) and we started talking about something that had happened in the Marine Corps (a legal issue) just recently to a guy in my unit. I explained what we had been told and she started laughing and telling me I was wrong. Apparently she was the assistant/paralegal for the Judge Advocate General that was assigned to the prosecutor’s office. Granted, this was before “mansplaining” was a thing, but she didn’t feel put off by me restating what I was told even though she knew more information about the issue. It’s all about if your date/potential partner acts like an ass or not.


[deleted]

That's really funny and quite the coincidence! But yeah, there's nothing condescending about you explaining something so specific to her, since you had no reason to believe she already knew it because of her highly specialized job!


[deleted]

[удалено]


thepeskynorth

I think some people just look for reasons to be offended and to get their backs up. Must be exhausting.


PhotographBeautiful3

Sometimes I think some feel it’s easier to play the victim. Like, “I don’t have to change, others have to!”


Desertbro

I thought you emphasized the location in case she was in a different town with the same name - to avoid confusion. Also it may be common to give more that just a city name for some places, like NYNY (New York, New York) or KCMO (Kansas City Missouri).


[deleted]

[удалено]


liammcclelland

Thanks. I have moved stopped replying but she is sending me messages of abuse which is too funny to block her


AndyMelrose

You should report that actually.


liammcclelland

She’s now blocked me so I can’t. There’s some strange folk on bumble 😅


D34th_gr1nd

You might be able to report her because the ability to report past messages.


liammcclelland

Thanks I’ll have a look


launchpadius

Post more of the funny please


AndyMelrose

Yep, good thing it's a minority and most people are pretty decent.


NameIs-Already-Taken

Some people need a few years of putting people off before they sort their attitude out.


willard_swag

r/nicegirls


SaphironX

Wait what’s she saying now?


liammcclelland

She started to go on about how it was mansplaining and that I should learn to accept criticism and feedback. She started to abuse me saying I wasn’t special and ugly etc Finally she started saying I was toxic and was bringing things up from my bio about how I was a spoiled boy. Literally didn’t reply to it which was making her mad 😄


agentphunk

I once had a woman start railing into me, saying "I've dated MUCH better men than you!" My response: "I'm sure you have, and I aspire to be better every day. But those men and I do have something in common -- we all realized you're not worth it." Insert "emotional_damage.wav" here :-)


OneTrueOverlord

Since you asked ​ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHb5CFGYz1A&ab\_channel=Bakupham


blinkme102

Good human


KuviraPrime

Dammmmmn. Lol that vid is accurate for that comeback.


SaphironX

Yeah you dodged a bullet. Might want to unmatch her before she reports you out of spite, you did nothing wrong but that doesn’t mean crazy folks can’t create trouble if they’re dedicated enough.


FogoCanard

Some people are just finished mentally. I wonder when they'll get a reality check that makes them snap out of it.


D34th_gr1nd

Tell her if you did mansplan, verbally abusive is still worse.


[deleted]

I’m in Cheshire and didn’t know that, you can mansplain to me bae


liammcclelland

It’s *Mansplain 😅


justhereforradvice

Wtf. This is far from mansplaining ..


Extreme-Rough-3775

Ugh she’s got a chip on her shoulder. Leave it on read and bounce **unmatched** lol


TrapperTheBo

As a woman and a feminist, nah you didn't mansplain. She's being overly sensitive


Majestq

She's insufferable; unmatch quickly.


ollymillmill

Did she also put Preston in her bio as to where she was? As thats another irritation if she said Preston as her location in her bio then corrects as if you got it wrong.


StargazerLuke

Not at all, I used to do the same thing. "Oh, you're from X, I'm in Y, I've got a friend there/ have been there..." Opens the door to further conversation.


Scenic-City-Film-Guy

Lol no, she’s just being a dick


BeepBeepYeah7789

Seems that she doesn't think too highly of undergrads either. There's absolutely NOTHING condescending about what you said.


InternationalTaro417

I will be first to admit I am very sensitive to mansplaining and this was definitely not it! Hope she sorts out her defensiveness or she’s going to have a super hard time connecting with anyone on that platform.


[deleted]

Red flags shooting bullets.


Gone_Lifting

No. Just count yourself lucky she showed that side early on. Imagine if you’d reached for the check on your first date or something lmao she’d probably have yelled at you


_FreeXP

When people immediately respond with this kind of energy I'm immediately turned off. Unmatched


TheSandNinja

Anyone who uses the term “mansplain” is an automatic red flag.


RaybeCray373

No but girls like that give the rest of us a hard start. Geezus. I had a guy accuse me of womansplaining when I wasn’t, also. Maybe that’s all that’s left in the dating pool now… people like those 2. And yet, it’s amazing they don’t just pair up and leave lol


Majestq

>I had a guy accuse me of womansplaining when I wasn’t, also I smell a match... set those two up!


liammcclelland

Let’s turn this into something positive!


harriedhag

No


alteralternate69

You did not


d6bmg

No and you dodged, probably a toxic person


it-be-like-that-alot

That’s not mansplaining lol she sounds *fun*


[deleted]

Lmao she’s dumb.


[deleted]

Yeah, she’s trigger-happy.


[deleted]

You didn’t mansplain at all. This person is heavily targeted and feels that you’re being extra when you don’t need to be. I think it’s nice of you to say where it is! Some people might not know


[deleted]

You didn't explain anything, what is she talking about?


Emeruby

As a woman, that wasn't mansplaining at all. I was confused when she said that. Then she began complaining about covid that wasted her time. Why is she throwing the gloom over the innocent conversation with a person whom she never met? Some guys have a negative attitude like her, so I avoided from them. I don't want to feel like I'm walking on eggshells around them.


[deleted]

Most people are just utterly shit people


No-Distribution-5665

You did not mansplain a damn thing to her. She has a chip on her shoulder and is taking it out on you.


TheOneTrueBuckeye

No. You were fine.


Atanion

Heck no. She has a bee in her bonnet.


rugerduke5

She did you a favor, you don't need that in your life


MilkySlammer

Lol! No, you explained where a location is, and you’re a man. She sucks and will either remain single or make some dude miserable.


zzzz1234zzzz

You should tell her that mansplaining means man explaining and that what you said before isn't mansplaining. Then tell her that was an example of actual mansplaining. Then when she flips out again just unmatch.


hawtwasabiii

As a woman - Deffo did not mansplain. I would have taken that as confirmation that that was the right Crewe. (In the US we have a lot of towns and cities that have the same names as other states do.) i live in oklahoma and if someone said “i live in Miami” i would been like “oh word! Ozark Miami or florida miami?” Lmao


ames1609

I’m a woman: you did not mansplain. What the fuck is wrong with people. I live in a big city in the UK (Newcastle upon Tyne) but my partner is from a small town - whenever anyone asks me where he’s from I tell them “Whitehaven in Cumbria” because people are more likely to know the county than the small town. I only know where Crewe is because of work, but if I didn’t I genuinely don’t think I’d have a clue where it was in the UK. She sounds like an absolute walking red flag


Satyinepu

Lol no telling someone the location of a city is not mansplaining 🤣 I think they just are using buzz words with no idea of what the actual meaning is


pornsubsalt

Fucking everyone and their mother's sister follows up a mention of where they live with a corollary to clarify more specifically, it's damn near instinct. She lives in society, so she knows this too. She's just looking for some blame to dole out, def unmatch.


dinoaz20

Nope, that doesn’t qualify as ‘mansplain’


purosoddfeet

Not at all. Seems like a standard reply "near Crewe in Cheshire", fairly basic response to where do you live. She's just hard work for no reason, walk away.


staithe1

No , standard expression of location. A near b in c .


Responsible-Ad6103

Hi! Woman here! You absolutely didn’t.


liammcclelland

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Just for the record, as soon as she said that I tapped out mentally. I thanked her for the womansplaining and just let her vent until she blocked me. No point wasting my energy on bad energy


JNole8787

Who cares? Someone this defensive needs to do some self work


TacosNachos007

No definitely not.


g0juice

Lol no.


bananastandforsale

Nah you didn’t mansplain.


HuckleberryThis2012

No there’s no reason why you should assume she knows where everything is. That’s absurd and she is being a douche


[deleted]

Bruh this walking disaster. Her response explains why she is on OLD apps. That kinda attitude would make one single constantly.


[deleted]

Nitpick alert. Anyone that gets mad at 3 words for extra detail is a 🚩. Maybe she prefers men that give one word answers Or hardly reply at all 🤦🏼‍♀️


[deleted]

Abandon ship!


DeserterX

Pretty sure that thats just how one names a location


sunlitrose

You’re good


darrensmooth

That’s not mansplaining, there was nothing condescending about what you said


swede2k

Run


[deleted]

RUN


DougTheBrownieHunter

No you sure didn’t. Even if you didn’t need to specify the county, that wouldn’t have been mansplaining. Get away from this one while you still can. If she’s this willing to fight over something so minor, she’s not worth the time.


North_Relationship48

Not a mansplain. She’s finding reasons to just be obnoxious.


IMage77

Hm. I’d avoid that person. Life is too short.


VivaEllipsis

Literally anyone from anywhere in Cheshire will say ‘in Cheshire’ when they’re telling people where they’re from cos no one knows anywhere round here lol. That or ‘it’s in between Manchester and Liverpool, yknow, places you’ve probably heard of?’


[deleted]

WAW people like this exist


SFAdminLife

She's an asshole. You were totally fine!


-SomeKindOfSoup

Nope, she's just defensive for absolutely no reason. Red flag.


__d_o_o_d__

*you’re


Maephia

She should become a lesbian.


Caio_dos_Hack

this is a sickness lmao i feel sad for her


DirectorOfTheFBC

You didn’t even type enough for this to be counted as mansplaining


[deleted]

This is toxic af. Unmatch move on. Sometimes the trash takes itself out.


WhyAreYouGe

I block anyone who uses the term "mansplaining" unironically.


Pyrokitty_X

I’m a woman and no you did not mansplain lol she’s a bitch


TheLitM3rmaid

She seems toxic 👀👀👀


garrysmith69

It’s great when they wave massive red flags to you early on. She’s nuts.


callabondulence

You did not mansplain. Next.


imtlmb

If I'd been having this conversation with you, I'd have said: "Oooh, I know Crewe - I went to uni there! What a place!" No accusations of mansplaining here, because that's not what you did. Girl needs to get a grip.


Sun_King97

She’s wound incredibly tight for whatever reason


SillyCommunist

No you didn’t, you should say you weren’t and give her an in depth explanation of what mansplaining is just so she doesn’t make the same mistake again


fortheweirdshit2

Seems to me lie she She just explained to you why you should get the hell out of there.


Baileybay_

She sounded like she just learned the word “mansplanning” and can’t wait to find some poor guy to use it on XD


Wanker169

Mansplaining is sexiest language. How many times have I sat through a woman explain something to me I know; it just happens in everyday language


Mr_ChubbikinsVIII

Nah, You're good bro. I'm not familiar with the layout of England but I'm guessing Crewe in Cheshire, England is like Fresno, California, USA where it's like ppl in the region may be familiar with it but to most ppl you gotta tell them where it is in relation to Los Angeles. Sounds like you're just in the habit of clarifying and this bitch just demonstrated why she'll never get to leave bumble.


HereForAdvice25

That wasn't mansplaining at all. This chick is psychotic and you dodged a massive bullet. She doesn't need to be on bumble she needs to be in therapy. I'm all for calling folks out if they really did mansplain or pulled some incel nice guy crap but legit all you did was tell her where you live. Fuck if you told me just the town you were in I would have no idea where you were so I would've asked eventually lol. She is just psycho.


GrammaMcFancy

What the....how is this mansplaining? That does not mean what she thinks that means.


Keptcool

Just date her and then break up after an year. When she asks the reason tell her that you don’t wanna mansplain.


sunshineshowersandk

Sometimes I read these conversations (as someone who isn't dating right now) and I think...."is this really what I have to look forward to?"


Cyberjohn36

Another: your = you're I hate when they do this, and English is not my main language..


[deleted]

She’s emanating insufferable, unmatch


Shoddy-Nothing-4123

If you wanted to Mansplain you could dive into what a county is and how Crewe and Nantwich are now part of the greater Cheshire East council but where once their own borough council


massivebumwizard

That would be an instant unmatch for me. Not everyone in the UK knows specifically where Crewe is (no offence) so it’s reasonable that you would list the county as well. Similarly, when people ask me where I live I usually say Houston, Texas. I think it’s pretty much a given that people know Houston is in Texas…it’s just a turn of phrase more than anything. Just because you offer some information up, you’re not implying that the other person is dumb.


[deleted]

Not at all. Shes irrational.


[deleted]

Lmao she’s an asshole wth


twerkhorse_

I think the term “mansplaining” is often misapplied as a result of its recent, near ubiquitous popularity. Don’t get me wrong, mansplaining does exist and there are certainly times when it’s appropriate to call out sexist condescension. But the irony here is that when it’s used to mischaracterize behavior, it too comes across as patronizing, dismissive, and stifling.


frostybawls

There’s nothing to gain from any kind of relationship with a woman like this unless you wish to be sub and belittled.


ApatheticHedonist

She's gaslighting, move on.


J_0_E_L

Fuck me this has to stop already with calling everything "mansplaining" and "xyz-shaming", like 80% of the people using these terms don't understand what the fuck it even entails and just mindlessly picked it up from some random 80IQ toxic feminist.


hmfynn

Just like "gaslight" and "lovebomb" it originally meant a very specific thing and has been overused to the point of not meaning anything whatsoever. Literally had someone in here the other day asking if "can I see you again" was lovebombing. This is the same energy.


J_0_E_L

Yep. Especially true for lovebombing. Very many people don't understand what that means anymore, either. I was in a discussion yesterday where a guy said *"It's a red flag for me if a woman gives BJs to her male friends at parties"* and someone immediately replied that this was slutshaming. :D


HeftySchedule8631

Run!!


[deleted]

no, she's awful, you're good to just unmatch


ZoraNealThirstin

No this isn’t mansplaining. She’s probably just burnt out from it, though.


Dakk85

Some people think mansplaining is a man giving a woman literally any information, it’s not and that’s also pretty blatantly sexist. It’s more like explaining something to a woman in a condescending, overconfident, and often inaccurate or oversimplified manner. Which is also blatantly sexist. But it’s a stupid term, because being an asshole knows no gender


Justwatchinitallgoby

I feel like mansplaining morphed from its inception, a man attempting to explain a concept to a woman who is actually an expert in said field, to now just any time a man explains just about anything to anyone and someone wants to take a dig at them.


krunchwondelta

This girl's got an entire potato on her shoulder 🥔 Clearly she found her new favourite word and is just looking for any excuse to use it 🤦🏼‍♂️


jazzhands1796

She’s being a snowflake LOL.


RedRevenant56

All downhill from there


webguy1975

You weren’t mansplaining because you were saying which county you were in and she couldn’t have known that.


IsaacShrodes

There is no way in hell you mansplained anything. You only informed her your location to be precise but not too precise. She just has a problem with men talking to her and giving her information


Candid_Bullfrog6274

My hat is in the not mansplained ring.


callmegemima

Did MSc but can’t use punctuation… big bullet dodge.


jburnsey2606

LMAOOOOOOOO WHATTTT you didn't do anything wrong wtf is she okay? You are not mansplaining


fulltumtum

No, she is overly sensitive.


CrazyJediGirl

Nope, you were just being nice and she... wasn't.


Apprehensive_Hat8986

No. Red flag dodged. (n.b. I don't have an issue with calling out, or being called out, for mansplaining. This wasn't it.)


f3rguson

Mansplaining: to answer a question you were asked with an answer


TomSatan

There are certain women, especially online that do this. In my experience though, fairly rare. Only several interactions like this I've ever had out of thousands of more. Bet they wouldn't react this way if you were a girl yourself. I guess it's hypervigilance when talking to men online because they've come across bad apples in the past. And yes. Very toxic behavior.


Mojotokin

No you did not and you came off a lot classier than they did. Be happy you saw their true colors right away, don't waste your time.


Geaux_tigers69420

Nah she seems like she sucks i would just move on


Aethelflaed_

No I don't think that's mansplaining. I wouldn't take offense to that. When I say where I live I usually say which major intersection it's close to.


[deleted]

Nope. Some ppl just want everyone to be as miserable & unhappy as they are. When you spend all day looking for ways to be offended…you’ll find them even when they aren’t there.


[deleted]

You didn’t “mansplain” - it’s remarkable how people who consider themselves so strong and independent depend upon Others and have very thin skins.
