I didn't say it was the same thing - I said it was as bad. You didn't "let him say his piece" - this is a forum where you couldn't have stopped him. What you did do is totally dismiss what he said and imply that he wasn't qualified to say it by telling him to leave those explanations to Mika. Gary was incorrect - yes. But all you had to say was, "a douche doesn't make it all the way to the uterus." Instead you told Gary to leave such explanations to women, because he's not qualified. Which, in essence, is what a mansplainer does when he tries to tell you about something uninvited as though you couldn't possibly be capable of knowing that information yourself. Different delivery method - same effect. It is the dismissal of another person based on the premise that their knowledge is inferior because of something inherent in their being - whether gender, race, ethnic origin...whatever.
