“Hello, Operator? I’ve been harassed by logic and reason”: Swedish women get hotline to report mansplaining

“Hello, Operator? I’ve been harassed by logic and reason”: Swedish women get hotline to report mansplaining, by Charlotte England.

Mansplaining is when ‘a man explains something to a woman without being asked, particularly something which she might already know more about than him’

Women who have things mansplained to them in the workplace can now report it to a dedicated hotline.

Unionen, Sweden’s largest union, is encouraging members to call up when male colleagues give them unsolicited lectures on things they already understand. …

Unionen said the phone line, which will be staffed by a gender expert and a group of feminist politicians, comedians and scientists, is “about equality”.
