This is what MORE IRRITATES women of men's attitude

You are a journalist.You are in a work meeting and your turn comes.You begin to present your suggestions on how to focus the next report on the problem of refugees and, suddenly, a companion cuts you for what? To explain the conflicts in the Middle East since the Second World War.He does it with a paternal tone that makes you nervous.This attitude of men already has a man: mansplaining , do you want to know more?

Mansplaining irritates women

It's not new.Women have to prove twice as much as men to get to the same place as they do.But once it We do, we are forced to deal with an attitude that drives us mad.For some reason, certain men assume that there are issues that we do not know and, interestingly, that ignorance attributed to us usually revolves around academic or scientific issues-tecnicas.

This is what MORE IRRITATES women of men's attitude

The mansplaining (the sum of the concepts" man "-man-and" explaining "-explaining-) is a clear symptom of how difficult it is certain men see us as their peers.Therefore, when we share spaces they feel compelled to explain the most basic details of this activity.Yes, suddenly we are surprised in the middle of a conference on any subject, without having enrolled and without needing Of course, instruction.

Of course, this mansplaining that so irritates women almost never tries to put on makeup, iron without leaving a wrinkle, or get our baby to sleep soon, why? Because these actions supposedly if they are per se in our domain area.Here we are the qualified voices, the authority made flesh.In fact, it is not strange that they approach us to ask us how to iron a shirt and , the truth is that many of us prefer to stick needles in the ones rather than take care of household chores.

They wonder and they answer

Within mansplaining, there are different trends.One of the most curious is to respond to themselves.I am going to tell you something that I know has happened to many of us who work on the internet and in writing.

When you meet someone, a One of your first concerns is to know what it works on.When we tell what we do, there are not a few who have had to endure a tirade about the revolution that the network for knowledge has meant.We are taught a true seminar on the history of telecommunications and how its evolution changes our way of being in the world, to explain to us how important our trade is.

This is what MORE IRRITATES women of men's attitude

Meanwhile, we are amazed at the master class about something that we not only dominated, but we have overcome centuries ago But, of course, our profession brings together everything for which we are genetically counterprogrammed: technical skills and such a broad knowledge about certain subjects that allows us to express ourselves and adopt a position before them.Technique and academy, forbidden territories, hostile to our nature.

This belief is what underlies this attitude.And that is why it irritates women.It is that subtext that makes the difference.Therefore, if a woman incurs similar behavior, we do not react the same way as if it comes from a man.It is the root of it that offends us and not the in itself.

It is true that every day there are more men interested in detecting and changing those tics. If you are one of them and want to know if you have ever practiced mansplaining, ask yourself this question, how many times have you answered something that you have not been asked, believing that person ignores it? How many times is that person a woman? There you have your answer.
