Theoretically, in some alternate universe where women hold most of the power and have historically steamrolled right over any man who dared to know stuff, maybe. In the universe we actually live in though, womansplaining is not a thing.
@bruce @CatpayneWaffle curious - you know what you're doing? benevolent sexism. they are weaker so they need you to protect them - you're doing it now... they don't, we share power here, it's the modern era.

@SnowyCA @Npars01 @sundogplanets Sadly I've seen Nicole yelled at recently. The problem is people sometimes just want to be social with experts - just show off they know something or ask a question. Depends on the user it seems, some are untouchable and think her replies in earnest are explaining. Not everything is a correction/explanation. Sometimes I think it's just "yes and..."
@jenzi @SnowyCA @sundogplanets
I don't see it as "yelling" but as a polite "please let me speak, without interrupting"
They are being kind, but firm, like every good teacher doing classroom management.
