Manspreading and manslamming are just the beginning!
By now, you may have heard of manspreading when a guy sits with his legs apart on the subway to assert his dominance and manslamming when a man doesnt get out of the way of a woman on the street and they run into each other.
While these are definitely very important womens issues, there are still so many more we need to be talking about. Here are ten words for even more ways men are constantly oppressing women:
1. Broplimenting
This is when a guy says something nice to you without asking for your consent first. Men should always ask. Do you consent to me complimenting you? before saying anything nice or else its assault. No, nonverbal cues dont count he still has to ask for explicit consent before offering that kind of affection.
2. Mansulting
This is when a man says something really mean to you. You know, like, the opposite of a broplimenting. Mansults are worse than insults because each one is another brick being added to the fortress of the patriarchy that surrounds you every day no matter how hard you try to fight it with hashtags on Feminist Twitter.

Guilty or not-guilty?
i like her. She’s funny and smart.
May I inquire as to whether she would be willing to oppress me?
(Oh press me! Again! Again!)
I’m voting for cute satire. It is actually pretty comical and explains why men are stuck in a ‘damned if you do’ and ‘damned if you don’t’ trap in regards to our relations with women.
I would guess generally not guilty, and without clicking on the link, I think is is pretty funny satire so far!
Broplimenting...gotta love it!
There are many man-haters out there for whom this article is gospel.
Love the pic.
She’s got that “I’m smarter than the sum of the progressive dork-O-nauts out there” look.
And she’s right. (In so many ways.)
Over the weekend a big Grizzly-Adams type guy smiled and me and said, “You really have some pretty hair.”
I should have screamed, “You SOB!”
;)
;)
You should have screamed "Rape!"
The sexist basturd :-)
She’s on Red Eye on occasion - she’s awesome.
Oh, and then there's "pig-norance." That's when men fail to notice the extraordinary lengths women go to to look nice. Men are so narcissistic that they overlook the $100 manicure and the kelp-ostrich egg shampoo imported from Micronesia, plus that cute bob you just spent half a month's salary on. Pigs!
Funny! :-)
With a face like that, you know she’s bringing the sarcasm.
He was raping your hair with his eyes.
Seriously? Treat us the same! Its not like were easily offended or anything! That should settle the question of satire.
:’)
LOL
We live in lunatic times.
I think she’s totally cute (of course, I married a blonde who is cuter!) - here’s one of her video reports interviewing Sn. Cruz:

No Guilty!
If it had been a Comanche, there might have been a problem.
Hilarious! She has the liberal-speak down.
