Is 'mansplaining' actually necessary?
It may well be, as women know much less than men in almost every domain. This is especially true for finance, the general factor of knowing about things, and science-related knowledge.
Evidently, men are not mansplaining enough:

You may be wondering "what's going on with factor 4?", and so did I. However, it ceases to be mysterious once you realize that factor 4 does not load at all on the second order general factor, and was also uncorrelated with factors 1 through 3. And look at the subtest loadings!
Despite being labeled 'humanities,' it is primarily defined by moderate negative loadings on Sport and Games, effectively indexing the absence of male-coded knowledge rather than humanities expertise. The former test is also the only one whose largest absolute loading was on F4.
Worth saying that a >1d difference in general knowledge is larger than typical for these studies; it is normally around half a standard deviation.
