Womansplaining

The act of opposing a logical, factual discussion or explanation by accusing the opposition of mansplaining and/or being sexist or misogynist and therefore their opinion is uneducated, thereby devaluing the argument through character attacks in lieu of an actual counter argument.
Commonly used alongside accusations of racism/transphobia or any other baseless character attack, and the claim an opinion is invalid on the basis of the speakers gender.
This is primarily used as a tactic by militant feminists as a shield of false righteousness against valid criticism.

I presented a statistical analysis of why the wage gap is a myth, and her only argument in response was womansplaining and accuse me of being a bigot and thereby dismissed my factual presentation because of my gender.
