"Only white men do X" is absolutely racist and sexist. "Mansplain" is derogatory.

“Mansplain” is derogatory.

I agree that it is derogatory to mansplain to someone, like to tell an expert in a subject that they don't know what they're talking about and thinking that's okay because they are a woman.

What I meant is that it's derogatory to use the term "mansplain". Sorry for confusing you.
