==Amused mastery== 
 Actually, "Mansplaining" appears to be application of an interactive technique between men and women called "amused mastery."  From a man's perspective it is "amused mastery" to respond to women's criticism or the feminine imperative with this type of psychological approach.  It follows that women would classify it pejoratively as "mansplaining" as it if was patronizing and misogynist.  FWIW.
