I think that the big reason this has become a thing as of late is because women feel, and legitimately so, that they are being pushed out of a lot of conversations. Mansplaining is an attempt to push them out of a conversation and is often very condescending. We also see this sort of thing in other categories. Whitesplaining, straightsplaining, and cissplaining are all things that I have seen people refer to. Oftentimes, people are called out for it most when they are injecting themselves into a conversation about gender, sexuality, race, etc., and disregarding the point of view of the minority, not acknowledging the position of privilege from which they speak.
That being said, those aren't the only times it is called out. Those are just the times I have seen most often.
I don’t know. The groups you mention don’t exactly seem shy about telling people not of those groups what they are doing or saying incorrectly.
