Nicole Froio, a U.K.-based Ph.D. student, asked her Twitter followers for their best examples of mansplaining on Wednesday, and boy did they deliver.

Women responded in droves, with many sharing stories of the dreaded mansplain coming from their husbands, colleagues, doctors, classmates and strangers on the internet.

Check out some of the most absurd examples below.
