“Only white men do X” is absolutely racist and sexist. “Mansplain” is derogatory.

Either it’s OK to do that, or it’s not. The race and gender of your target doesn’t make a difference.

“Mansplain” is derogatory.

I agree that it is derogatory to mansplain to someone, like to tell an expert in a subject that they don’t know what they’re talking about and thinking that’s okay because they are a woman.

  What I meant is that it’s derogatory to use the term “mansplain”. Sorry for confusing you.

    Careful you don’t break your pearls, you’re clutching them pretty hard.
