Definitely not new. Been hearing it for years. Basically when a man assumes he has more knowledge about womanhood than a woman and proceeds to explain what it means to be a woman to a woman. Mansplainin'. Happens a lot.

I didn't mean that she doesn't have loads of privilege; just that she obviously has a better understanding of sexism than he does.
barista here! First, a blind item: which forever a lister gave the name hitler for his drink and then was horrified to find I don't take shit and actually put it on the screen as so?
Dude, we're getting insulted on behalf of all men tailors/sewers, here, along with the expectation that all women know how to sew, and also the idea that women are automatically "delicate."
Also you're a man, so you don't hear this shit all the time. Women do - we recognize it because recognizing microaggressions is what we do to survive.
More like a condescending explanation by a male. When a woman is condescending, people just call her a bitch.
Andrew takes the typical male stance of being defensive and making the female (in this case Emma) seem to be over-reactive, simply because she asked him to clarify a comment. There are so many great responses he could have given to her legitimate, non-threatening question, yet he bumbles, acting wounded by the fact…
My dad learned to sew when he was behind enemy lines in Vietnam countering guerrilla activity. When you're essentially cut off from supplies on important missions, you don't have easy access to replacement uniforms (though I suppose you could go all Ryan Gosling shirtless) It is a very valuable skill to have no matter…
""It's feminine in the sense… It's amazing how you took that as an insult," he said."
I'm curious to hear Andrew Garfield's thoughts on the entire tailoring industry on Savile Row.
If there's one thing that white chicks on Jezebel love to write about, it's what a great boyfriend Idris Elba would be and what an awesome best friend Lupita Nyong'o would be. It's almost like the average white chick on Jezebel has no real black friends, and has to overcompensate when she sees a black person in a…
Eh, I'm all for self-deprecating humor, and as a Jew I know first hand my people like to make with the funny at our own expense... but his comment comes across as really strange and off-putting.
it's kind of annoying how jezebel trips over itself to proclaim how Idris is the dreamiest dude in the universe or whatever... sorry, but his personality sucks and you're trying too hard to seem down w the black dudes. it's transparent
Zach and Donald have the greatest bromance of all time. It's like The Notebook and Titanic combined.
He's ruining apple slices! Jerk.
It's weirdly sweet that it was his wife...
This isn't particularly juicy, but a guy I was seeing is really active on Instagram, has a bit of an internet following based on a site he runs. Anyways, he got a lot of "ooh sexy" and those types of comments from girls all the time. Didn't love it, but whatev, instacreeper from Canada, do your thing. Then one girl,…
Looked up a fellow law student on the facebook. Oh, what a cute girlfriend! And down the rabbit hole we went. Law student was 28 or so and had recently quit his job as a public high school English teacher, this I knew. What I did NOT know, was that his girlfriend, who had moved to our city with him, had just…
Last Christmas my sister and I were in our hometown. Our dad was sleeping over at his fiance's place for the night, so the two of us decided to invite some people over and get drunk. A lot of people showed up, really random old friends of friends started coming out of the woodwork. This dude that no one really likes,…
I was like you, I was in grad school before Facebook was really a thing, and I didn't myspace.
