In this brief instructional monologue, the speaker offers three concise strategies to avoid mansplaining. First, they advise refraining from offering answers unless explicitly asked, noting that the impulse to provide unsolicited information can be addictive. Second, they suggest shifting the conversation by asking about the other person rather than dominating with self‑focused commentary, promoting a more intelligent and balanced dialogue. Third, they recommend pausing to assess whether a correction is truly needed or merely an impulse to score points, encouraging restraint and respect for the other’s perspective. The overall message is to be mindful of one’s urge to speak and to prioritize listening and genuine engagement.

How to stop mansplaining. Number 1, if you weren't asked, keep it to yourself. See, having an answer for everything is addictive, okay? Becomes an impulse. I know that there's that instinct to provide, but that does not also mean you have to provide every answer regardless if anybody wants to hear it or not. Number 2, if you want to come across as smart and cool, ask about the other person. Whoever thought that Somebody who only spoke about themselves was cool. Just have an intelligent conversation. And number 3, ask yourself if what they said was really incorrect, or are you just acting on an impulse to cover them like you would a game of washers or cornhole? Don't take points away from them. I know it's hard to take, but not everybody wants to hear what you have to say. So try that and follow me.
