Yes - This one pisses me off no end too, because labelling condescension (including sexist condescension) doesn't need to demonise an entire gender. - Simon Dillon

Common misuse: I don’t need you mansplaining to me!
Translation: I hate being told I’m wrong, especially by a man. I hate it even more when they’re right. And it irritates the hell out of me if they clearly explain how I’m wrong.
