Mansplaining

"*As to whether mansplaining is a real problem on the internet and how to deal with it, I would say-- I don't know. I'm not a girl.*"
―Erik
Mansplaining is the 66th lesson of Internet Comment Etiquette. It was released on March 29, 2017.

## Summary

Erik watches a video that explains what mansplaining is. The video provides an accurate description of what mansplaining is and then justifies it because the narrator believes that women are out to get him.

Erik officially starts the lesson by giving Planned Parenthood a $50 donation to make up for any mistakes he might make during the lesson. Then he watches a video that shows examples of how it's more difficult for women to be taken seriously. The comments then refuse to take women seriously, so Erik leaves a comment directed at them. Erik watches another video where a photoshopped bull-man makes fun of women for trying to be taken seriously and then complains about Jews. Then Erik puts on a video about how to handle men that "manterrupt," but he accidentally talks over the video and decides to just skip it. He puts on another video on the topic and leaves a comment from the perspective of a girl.

Erik decides that the best way to learn about mansplaining is to have more direct interactions and ask people directly. He goes on YouNow and asks some people what they think about mansplaining. They either don't know or are incredibly condescending about it, so Erik makes a note to never ask questions on YouNow.

Then Erik puts on a BuzzFeed video that explains manspreading is when a man takes up too much space. The woman in the video takes up a bunch of seats on a bus while Erik says that manspreading doesn't exist. Comments are disabled on that video so Erik leaves a comment on another BuzzFeed video about whether hot dogs are sandwiches and mansprains his pinky.

*Thanks for clearing that up bitchnips, almost failed a shit test in my pants to this video big ups my favorite part is when you blamed women for all your problems with women lol fucking Sherlock Holmes over here*
- Erik

*Damn I haven't seen this many pissed off dudes since the last time Amy Schumer opened her mouth. Are you guys on some kind of mailing list that tells you when to fuck up comment sections or is this just the natural state of things online? I wouldn't know because I don't waste all my fucking time calling women cunts on youtube between popping facials on my anime sex pillow. I've never seen a youtube video proven so effectively by its own comment section but yo check it out all your mothers are whores and if my girlfriend ever gets pregnant I'm gonna mansplain to her that she needs to take a fuckin dive lol the CIA has all your phones tapped*
- Erik

*I got accused of mansplaining because I was trying to tell this girl that having a vagina doesn't make her special. I mean I've got an asshole and there's basically no difference between vaginas and assholes. They both do the same things and don't even tell me men don't understand childbirth because I ate two pounds of cheese at my buddy Jakes house and the next day I swear I pooped out twins. Oh by the way that weird otherkin avatar of yours is one of the most obnoxious fucking things I've ever seen in a Youtube video. You realize the irony of representing yourself with a character that's literally bullheaded right? Also good job picking your dream body I mean who the fuck are you trying to fool here? Can't wait for the 100k subscriber special where you livestream your balls dropping you savage garden backup singer sounding bitch ass narc motherfucker you should call this channel "No Testosterone" one love Salvia and I'm out like any girl unfortunate enough to catch you as a blind date*

*Hey I'm a girl and I'd love to date any of the strong opinionated men in this comments section. There's nothing I like more than a guy whose response to a video like this is to shit all over women. You could take a whitewater rafting adventure down my big ol wet puss-place the way this kinda talk's got me going. I'm sure you've all got girlfriends who you fearlessly share these youtube comments with and bitch mark me down as JEALOUS. I mean you guys really have women figured out in that they're all screeching harpies that want to take your balls and 9/11 them right back into your hearts until you're just a bunch of baby juice turkey basters under the enslavement of womankind. Can't wait to see how you guys respond to the upcoming Glengary Glen Ross remake with an all female cast! Chances are you're gonna need some crazy mansperimental drugs from India to keep the blood out of your anger-boners when that trailer drops.*

## Context

1. ↑ Amy Schumer is a comedian that's sometimes criticized for her lowbrow humor. Much of her humor revolves around women's issues so criticism against her is amplified by sexism.
2. ↑ Glengarry Glen Ross is a film about competitive real estate salesmen. It's considered to be a very "manly" movie. No remake of it was planned as of this lesson.
