I have a term also: Fem-terrogating

Are you new here? Where do you work? What do you do for work? Does that pay well? Are you married? Ad infinitum...

I simply answer that I don't want to man-splain things.

Man-splaining isn't any man explaining anything, it specifically refers to man's tendency to assume women have very little knowledge and condescension while explaining. You can answer questions???

I do like fem-terrogation though

You man-splained the idea of man-splaining in a thread about a meme about the same thing. I've lost track of where the ironic joke ended.

[-] aaaaace 6 points 6 months ago

I think fem-terrogation is used to elicit specific info and the subject man may often not gather what is really being sought and why.

If the desired info is given, great.

If the wide-eyed probing questioning leads to bloviation on a pet subject and away from the sought data needed for mating informational purposes, then a splenetic term is applied to the subject.

Thus it is likely that ND men are often categorized thusly, as well as trying the patience of innocent questioners who are merely trying to ascertain bank balances, salary, promotion potential, and other relevant info needed to determine if she is suddenly interested in his pet subjects.

You have a very transactional view of the world

[-] aaaaace 1 points 6 months ago

I see everyone eventually getting there. Sadly.

Well, you sure are helping to normalize it.
