My wife has accused me of mansplaining when I really was just sharing the information I had in my head about "the thing" because I was proud of myself about that.
There's also the "You may already know all this, but it's worth saying out loud anyway."
I'm not saying mansplaining isn't a thing - it certainly is - but there are other innocent "info dump" kinds of things that can look like mansplaining but weren't intended to be. I try to be very clear about why I am info dumping when I do, but I'm not always able to catch myself in time.

That’s a great observation Nougat! Great job!
Thank you! That’s exactly what I wanted to hear!
So, what's the latest topic you want to info-dump about? I'm curious and invite an info-dump.
I just fixed one of my motorcycles, and I'm currently doing a deep dive on the pros and cons of phenolic caliper pistons. I could go on about motorcycling and vehicle mechanics all day every day.
