    So it seems like what you’re trying to say is that it’s possible for you to use that word without being a sexist, depending on the context?

    Yes or no?

      Use it in a sentence in the correct context, I’ll leave it to you to prove you can remove the insult from it.

      No, its always sexist. Point to where I said the person using it is always a sexist. What I’ve said is if you’re saying someone is mansplaining you’re in fact a sexist and I’ve said you cannot remove the intended insult.

        Let’s try this again.

        Yes or no:

        Is it possible for you to use the word “mansplain” without being a sexist, depending on the context?

          Yes. We’ve gone over this. You can use it without being a sexist.

          You cannot use it in the proper context without being a sexist ie. “Greg is mansplaining baseball.” Because that’s clearly a sexist insult.

          Your think you’re making a point but you’re just rehashing shut you’ve apparently forgotten.
