When a woman rejects information (especially from a man) based on the tone in which it is delivered. Related to mansplaining.
Let's get our egos out of the way of sharing accurate information: I'll stop mansplaining if you stop missunderstanding.
Even if what you're saying is correct, I'm still entitled to my missunderstanding.
A corollary to mansplain, to missunderstand is to ignore information based on the condescending tone of the explainer. While a missunderstanding sometimes results in a missed opportunity for a greater understanding, it is also a partially justified skepticism, since mansplainers are frequently overconfident in their beliefs. Just as mansplaining is now more broadly understood to not exclusively apply to men “splaining” to women, men can also missunderstand.
If you would stop mansplaining for a minute and talk to me like an intelligent adult, I would not be be in a better position to not missunderstand your valid points (assuming there are any).
A missunderstanding happens when a girl or unmarried woman (a miss) understands what a male is saying as mansplaining when they are simply being a person freely speaking.
Hey, you are missunderstanding what I'm saying.
I'm only voicing my opinion, take it or leave it, no need to reduce me to such absurdity.
Missunderstandings done by calling me a mansplainer is only polarizing.

The way you would comprehend or otherwise view a particular concept, object, event, etc. if you think of it in the way that a girl or unmarried woman might.
I tried to figure out about the macho tendencies that so many dudes seem to have, but as a humble-minded and "peace 'n' negotiations"-loving lady, it was impossible for me to missunderstand the whole idea.
