    Who’s obsessed? It’s a joke about a dude attempting to man-splain even when they’re wrong (I’m a dude and I’ve definitely seen it) and her turning the tables on him. That’s it. To get defensive about that is… weird.

      More like the author is so insecure herself that she feels forced to use these terms in the belief that they somehow strengthen her position.

        Or… Just maybe… It’s a joke and it’s just trying to be an even more absurd take on the original gnu+linux copypasta

        Quite right. The joke works even without the „woman good/man bad“ subtext.
