Mansplaining is not what people make it out to be. It is in extreme cases a bad thing but anytime a dude explains any type of concept to a woman they're pointed at and ridiculed as doing some mansplaining. And it is toxic in the sense that it makes some man, who would otherwise not have a patronizing attitude to women, not want to interact or convey any information to women. All this fingers pointing and exaggerating is a freaky thing.
But we as humans tend to see things from the prism of a late concept we just learned about and gauge it against various models in order to test its validity. The problem is that in this case it is not about being valid but about some sort of subjectivity.
