@renordquist @erzsebel @academicchatter Why do you feel it is harder to combat if it’s unconscious?

@renordquist @hamza @erzsebel @academicchatter I think someone intentionally mansplaining would get defensive upon confrontation, whereas pointed out to someone unintentionally doing it would really depend on how agreeable they are. I’m trying to understand the other gender’s perspective of this. To be honest I do not notice it happen infront of me, so i’m trying to be more aware of it, or I work and hang out with really cool people that never do that :)
