    I had the same thought and hesitated before posting this, but the facial expressions on the women really made the image and I couldn’t help myself. Especially the woman on the right with blue sleeves.

      This really looks like a stock photo for mansplaining that the university just copied.

      They do look like they are all quite bored or at least barely interested and like he’s explaining something they know well, and therefore don’t need an explanation of.

      Yeah, it would be good if everyone looked engaged and interested. Here everyone just looks miserable, which is funny even without the thought of mansplaining. It’s like “our courses are very boring and you wish you would’ve stayed in bed every day”.

      Yeah, yeah, I didn’t mean to insult you or your post, I just had this thought about mansplaining in general.

      And it’s true the picture is kind of … extreme from certain point of view :) I mean regardles of one’s opinion on mansplaining, but if ‘mansplaining’ as a term should have a picture … then this is a very good candidate :)

      The one to the right of bluesleeves also appears to be looking at her with what looks like sympathy
