Karthik Kumar Instagram – Just the other day a man sitting in a meeting with me launched into a long explanation that began with “what swarnamalya is trying to say it…” 🙄as if we can’t speak for ourselves. I felt mansplained and so amused and pissed 👿. So excited to release this special episode -1 on a topic that is an everyday lived experience for all women across all other intersections. When I heard @evamkarthik has created a stand up show titled Aansplaining I must admit I had mixed feelings. I felt “not again! A man to explain even Aansplaining to us”. But the show turned the lens so cleverly towards the issue all the while acknowledging the male presence privilege, combining personal experiences in a way that the last laugh lingers on in our minds. When I discovered that KK had two dynamic women @radhikaganesh and @mathangi to work with him on the script ….. I knew that KK had thought through this process carefully and sensitively. I had to learn more. I HAD to share this with you guys. So here it is! The first episode that decodes male egos, Manels, mansplaining and much more with the three amazing friends and creators. And do catch Aansplaning near you when it’s showing next. You will thank yourself, especially if you got your male partner, colleague, sibling, son to watch it with you! #BOOM #MicDrop #aansplaining #swarnamalya #youtubechannel #mansplaining #maleprivilege #dontexplain
