A new survey sheds some light on the challenges women face with “mansplaining”—when men explain topics in a condescending way. Researchers polled over 2,000 women across the United States to learn how often and where these encounters occur.
Georgia’s Ranking: Georgia ranks ninth among states with the fewest mansplainers. However, nearly half of the women surveyed in the state said they experience mansplaining on a weekly basis.
Key Findings:
- About 49 percent of Georgia women report being mansplained to every week.
- Nearly 47 percent have dated someone they consider a mansplainer.
- Roughly 69 percent have worked with a mansplainer.
Why It Matters: The findings show ongoing gender-based communication challenges in workplaces and personal relationships. The data suggest many women in Georgia face condescending interactions with men multiple times each week, affecting both professional and social settings.
Deeper Dive: If you’re looking for a state with fewer mansplainers, New Jersey ranks number one for the fewest mansplainers. You’ll want to avoid Oregon though. Oregon was ranked number one for the most mansplainers. The full study can be found here.
