If I write - Garbage Plate - it's a Rochester thing - you wouldn't understand.
Ditto - street meat.
Now when I go back home to Rochester - I've learned (after 8 years in New Jersey) to not say - let's get a pie. Unless I want some sugary confection late at night. It's a tri-state area thing they wouldn't understand.
If I write - tender headed or ashy - it is a black thing - and one might not understand or they might understand. 
Who knows? But it's a black thing I fully understand.
If I write about my experience a decade ago where my water bra exploded - its a woman thing the average man can't understand. Or if I start talking about breast adenomas and why my OB-Gyn suggested the water bra based on his feedback from patients as a result of being a doctor committed to the health and care of women for 40 years - its a woman thing that most men wouldn't understand.
We aren't all the same - and Mansplain wraps up the experience and behavior that irritates the fuck out of me.
