'The Womansplainer' is the Internet's answer to "mansplaining."

For those of you unaware, mansplaining is, according to [Urban Dictionary](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-stylers), the act of "delighting in condescending, inaccurate explanations delivered with rock solid confidence of rightness." The term is often used to refer to male commentators contributing their two cents to Internet discussions -- especially those pertaining to feminism. Because obviously women need a man to explain women's rights to them.

Created by Elizabeth Simins, the Womansplainer is billed as consulting service for "men who have better things to do than educate themselves about feminism." For $20, Simins will [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spendher-hotline) your question for you and hand-pick several articles that she feels adequately represent the subject. Bump it up to $50 and Simins will have a public, 15-minute [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/founder-mode-checker) conversation with you about your question. Forty minutes will cost you about $100.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Feminist Consulting Services:** Creating specialized consulting services for underrepresented communities could lead to increased accessibility and understanding of important social issues.
- **Online Education Services:** Meet the demand for accessible education and certification programs by leveraging online learning platforms that target niche audiences.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Education:** The education industry could benefit from creating and promoting classes and certifications on topics like feminism and social justice.
- **Consulting:** Specialized consulting services could be offered to individuals and businesses looking to better understand social issues and create effective diversity and inclusion strategies.
