When the term “mansplaining” pops up, Rebecca Solnit instantly comes to mind. Her essays are darkly funny, and amazingly powerful. I am blessed to know many feminist men, and am proud to be married to a man wearing a #heforshe tshirt at this very moment, but I have also sat with my right eyebrow cocked…
