    If that were true, it would have been called dadsplaining

      I love thinking that mansplaining is preparation for the evolved state of dadsplaining. This is fantastic!

      Honestly, I’ve read a psychological study on this that basically concluded the it should be called “dadsplaining” because it’s based in a natural instinct of wanting to explain things to help your kids grow.
