When someone tells you how to craft your sandwich, as if they have a superior knowledge of the sandwich arts.
1: You know, the pickles should be sliced vertically on top of the mustard, and you really should use shredded iceberg lettuce---
2: Stop sandwich-splaining! Next are you going to tell me I have to cut it in half diagonally?!?
1: Yes, yes I am.
When a customer is trying to explain the job better than the person providing the service.
Customer Splaining: The customer, customer splained how to do my own job.
For example, a customer telling you how to make a latte, when you’ve been a barista for 5 years.
2. When a white person commits a heinous act only to have it explained away by other way people as "not that bad" or is otherwise given the benefit of the doubt in a way that would not never happen for anybody who wasn't white.
3. Actually it doesn't even have to be a heinous act. It can even be normal behavior. Like the way they admire other white people from Europe. They would break their necks trying to help someone who speaks French or German. Let someone speak Spanish and they just shout something like, "Speak English!"
Ex. Mexicans are "foreigners" or "immigrants" (even thought they're actually from the same continent!) but white people from Europe are "travelers" or "expats".
Real life examples of White-'splaining:
Real Life Example 1: White man who is the father of 2 was found guilty of possessing kiddie porn.
Response from another white person: "Just because he had kiddie porn doesn't mean he was a bad father - unless it was his kids in the pictures."
Real Life Example 2: Those black people just keep shooting each other. Their neighborhoods are filled with crime. We should lock them all up.
Response from white people after Columbine, Newtown, Chris Benoit and every other white mass shooting: This a terrible tragedy but there's nothing we can do about it. It just happened.
Random Example 3: White guy robs a bank: He was at the end of his rope trying to feed his family. Mexican guy robs a bank: Those people shouldn't be here anyway.

The male art of explaining a concept in such basic terms that even a woman could understand it.
So I was man-splaining to my wife that toothpaste is best squeezed from the bottom and not from the middle of the tube.

"Nasiha-splaining" is a term coined to describe a situation where Nasiha condescendingly explains something to a person (they’re most likely called zawad) in a patronising or dismissive manner, typically assuming that the person has less knowledge or understanding of the topic. The term is a combination of "Nasiha” and "explaining" and is often used to highlight instances of superiority complex and the power dynamics that can exist in conversations between nasiha and the general every day person . It implies that Nasiha, due to insecurity issues and an ego complex , may feel entitled to assert their expertise and dominate conversations, disregarding the perspectives and knowledge of that person and maybe even hurt their feelings in the process. The term is generally used to draw attention to these dynamics and promote awareness of how Nasiha can sometimes forget she’s actually not the mot important person in the world, and there are people who are actually better than her because she’s exceedingly average. Nasiha Splaining can also be used as a term to describe gaslighting as Nasiha tends to do that a lot
Nasiha was Nasiha-splaining to Zawad on how stem subjects were inferior to humanities even though she was forgetting she is most likely be unemployed in the future because the ability to explain how the flowers In Blakes poem infer vulnerability, actually has no real world applications.
