I love that the Urban Dictionary mansplains mansplaining

[AHellOfABird]

I have never talked to a friend in that way. Have I done friending wrong?

[ISaySteadyOn]

Seriously, if it were about friendship, he ought to be next to her or at least at a similar height to indicate an equal relationship. In that, he is looming over her.

[GreenTomatoJam]

It may be an image of friendship, but really, they've totally nailed it haven't they. That's awesome. I want a miniature for my desk.

We are deeply saddened that somebody on the internet/a whole bunch of articulate women pointed out the frigging obvious

[GirlSailor]

We are deeply saddened that someone made a joke on the Internet.

Him: am going to tell you what mansplaining is and do not interrupt me.

Her: I bet you'd love that, wouldn't you ?
(Secretly thinking smugly, what an arrogant cunt)

[iisme]

Oh my god, the urban dictionary of mansplaining! 'deemed to be condescending, no matter how patient or factual it may be'. Um, is that an ironic definition? It's 'deemed' (i.e., not actually, but only considered to be) and 'no matter how patient' - as if explaining things excessively patiently isn't exactly what condescending is!

Agh, these irrational women with their silly interpreting of the kind explanations of men, when they are just patiently trying to get some actual facts that these women obviously don't know into their pretty heads!

[Dozer]

The article quotes the sculptor as saying it's his daughter and her friend! "We are deeply saddened that this image of friendship has been misconstrued as a symbol of sexism on social media. Nothing could be further from the truth."

[PacificDogwod]

I love it when life imitates art imitates life.

Man: Actually, it's about ethics in game journalism.

[GirlSailor]

That article is hilarious. They had me at 'urban dictionary defines...'

"testicles of objectivity" :o :o

[shinynewusername]

at your brother's alma mater, bertrand. Do they have a lot of blind students?

[GiddyGiddyGoat]

The mansplainer looks more interested in the Carnate word...

[BertrandRussell]

I am equally delighted by The University of the Incarnate Word, to be honest. My brother invented an institution called The West Virginia Anababtist College, and many of his FB friends think he is an alumnus......

[Dozer]

Her: I believe it's the warrior pose, not the dangler.

[Dozer]

Him: How're YOU doing? Wanna head to yoga later? Love it. Am feeling really limber.

Her: watch you don't pop your hip with that lunge.

[GiddyGiddyGoat]

Him: If I stand like this for four hours at a time, alternating which leg is placed on the bench every 22 minutes, it is proven to boost my sperm count by at least 66.66% over a period of 33 days... I can show you the data if you like....?

Her: I've told you before, FUCK OFF or I'm calling the police.

[PalmerViolet]

Him: It's lovely they let you gals from the typing pool sit in the students quad.

Her: I'm teaching your next semester, you shitegobbet.
