The chart starts off asking "Did she ask you to explain it?" and varies off to other questions including "Do you have more relevant experience?", "Would most men with her education and experience already know this?" and finally "Did you ask if she needed it explained?" The chart ends with the four options "Not mansplaining', "Probably mansplaining", "Definitely mansplaining" and "Just stop talking now."
Since going viral and receiving 50,564 retweets and 121,358 likes, Goodwin published an article on the BBC, explaining how people reacted to the chart.
"Thousands of female-appearing Twitter users started sharing the post, asking to print it on business cards or staple it to the foreheads of men," she wrote.
"Responses from male-appearing Tweeters were more mixed. Some responded with mansplaining, either explaining sexism to women or asking how women would learn if men didn't share their knowledge. Many said the diagram was helpful. Others wondered whether this is really a gendered behaviour; a few argued (fairly, I think) that fathers are frequently mum-splained."
