A bit ironic when the only examples I've seen of so-called 'mansplaining' on this male-dominated site have been posted by a woman.

My mental picture for you is your avatar, except you've got this glass of red wine in your hands. You go from sweet and conversational to sardonic within an instant (and back), for some reason the mental image seems to fit!

I have no idea what I think Age looks like.

Hmm. When I drink it's always red wine, and I do kind of feel that the avatar 'is' me in an odd way, which means that Henry might just resemble the little caveman.

i feel like i should say something cuz this whole thing started with me answering a question henry intended for AC, which was my bad. but you know me I'm like a shark circling for an opportunity to be an asshole.

and now we developed what i believe may be a complex of misunderstandings. now veg correct me if I'm wrong but i think you meant that if anyone, the women on this site are the ones explaining shit to a bunch of male idiots... so the statement was, ironically, compliment to AC (as well as Belinda and DAM)?

am i way off or what?

now if you were insuing that AC has mansplained somewhere in the sense that her manner was inadvertently condescending or arrogant, I'd disagree in that i detected no such tone myself, and I'm prettt good at that.

in order to be mandplaining something, it's not enough to be clearly more intelligent about a matter/subject. there has to be that subtle condescending subtext to be qualifiable as such.

anyway what i did in the original post that started all this was a parody of a guy parodying a guy who's tryna impress the girl and embarrass the other guy in front of the lady, etc. i mean clearly that's what i wuz doin.

also, a particular analytical function in logic prevents me from ever being with lesbianese girls, i.e., if i were ever with one, they wouldn't be lesbianese anymore. ergo, i can never be with a lesbianese girl.

I would just let it go. veg has little patience for social topics and I've learned it's best just not to engage on those because it doesn't go anywhere anyway. There are other things to talk about and get along with over.

It can be amazing just how DIFFERENT what the truth REALLY IS, from what is IMAGINED.

Also, what APPEARS 'random', to some, can actually have a great deal of purpose and/or intent behind it.
