Re: Mansplaining
(Anonymous) 2016-03-11 05:06 am (UTC)(link)The first is, as you said, a man trying to talk over women about women's experiences.
The second is a man automatically assuming that he knows more about a subject than a female peer with equal training and expertise (or than a female professional who has more expertise than he does), and deciding he needs to explain things so the poor silly woman can keep up.
The second is occasionally difficult to distinguish from your garden variety Wandering Arrogant Fuckwit. Generally, the distinction's made if he only does it to women, and assumes that male peers or superiors will know what they're talking about (and, occasionally, that male laymen will also know what they're talking about, because the information is handed out along with their guy card or something). If he condescendingly explains shit to everyone unfortunate enough to wander into view, he's just an ass.
It sounds like the people complaining are trying to make the line in the trailer out to be the second type, which it could be - I haven't seen the trailer, so I don't know the context - but it's probably being misinterpreted.
