literally has to "whitesplain" fucking EVERYTHING to us.

im a smart guy. i have a masters degree. he dropped out of college.

LITERALLY EVERY CONVERSATION with him is him trying to explain things to us. he has an opinion on every fucking thing and its getting a fucking annoying.

EXAMPLE

he bought my girlfriends aunt a google home mini for christmas. her aunt isn't stupid. she has alot of tech stuff already. he LITERALLY got down on his knees like he was talking to a little kid (she was sitting) and was like "this is a google home mini. it works like this" and condescendingly explained it to her. wtf.

then literally yesterday, we're talking about an issue my girlfriend's brother is having and he was like "He needs to move out, get out of this state, and live on his own. I know, i went though this"

UH. WHO THE HELL ARE YOU. he's only know us for like less than a year and now hes saying our family members needs to LEAVE? FUCK OFF

IM FUCKING MAD AT THIS GUY

NOW BEFORE YOU CALL ME RACIST, IM TELLING YOU THE TRUTH. HE ACTS LIKE HE KNOWS EVERYTHING AND ACTS LIKE HE KNOWS BEST AND THIS IS THE ONLY EXPLANATION

FUCKING
PRIVILEGE

You might be right. Do you have accents? In his privledged mind he must think he has to speak slow and explain everything.

I'm sorry your sister's boyfriend is a dumb shit.

Calm down. People date and break up all the time.
The issue will probably resolve itself after the sister gets tired of the guy.

If it doesn't look like that's going to happen...then someone needs to step in and set the guy straight on a number of things. He's clearly not going to do it himself. He's getting the message that nothing's wrong because no one is checking him on it...

You can sit there and say "why should I have to step up for that".
If not you, who will? The sister...?

You talk like you're proud of your Asian heritage. Why not prove it further by refusing to stay silent?
Hell the awkwardness of that alone will probably chase the guy away before the sister bothers to dump him.

Or...OR...just maybe he might accept your complaints and check himself for the sake of staying with the sister.
People can be convinced to adjust their behavior. If you don't believe that's also a possibility, you would be joining him in ignorance.

And for the record I'm not white.

I dunno, maybe his assertiveness is what she finds attractive about him.

In any case, someone definitely needs to check him, lol. He sounds out of control.

I never understood this. I dated a Japanese girl for years, and we talked about cultural differences a lot, but the only time I ever had to "explain" something to her was when we'd encounter people who used a lot of slang.

Gtfo, this has nothing to do with race. This guy treats everyone like that. There are just people who walk around that know EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING and they just wont shut the fuck up. If you're lucky, you only know one and you only see them infrequently and are not forced to interact with them.

If you're unlucky, its your brother in law.

Yeah, I'm Asian and I think he's over exaggerating. Not sure what race had to do with it.

But considering the account information and the fact that TC hasn't posted again since the OP, it's likely just a shitpost.

Why don't you just be straight up with him and tell him he doesn't have to explain everything and you don't appreciate his condescending tone?

All of you are encouraging his behavior cause you're all obviously passive af, including your aunt. A simple, "I know what the fuck a google home is, Tom," Would go a long way.

No need to bring race into this OP, it's just your girlfriend's sister's boyfriend's irritating quirk. You should talk to him about it sometime.

What's whitesplaining
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/whitesplain

To explain (something) condescendingly to one who is not white, especially regarding race relations or minority behavior, presuming the listener's inferior understanding because of their race.

So can you explain how race has anything to do with it? Are you saying condescension and explaining things are an exclusively white trait?

It's racist to say "whitesplain" just like it's sexist to say "mansplain."

The guy isn't like that just because he's white. He's like that because he's an asshole. You clearly have your own prejudices if you immediately jump to the first conclusion.

Your sister could easily be dating an Asian guy that's overly opinionated or likes to offer advice when it's not wanted. It's not a race exclusive thing, just like being condescending toward the opposite (or even the same) sex isn't a gender exclusive thing.

That being said, I'm dating a Filipina atm and I've never bothered to try explaining anything to her unless she specifically asks me about something. I've met a lot of her family and I listen to them and respect their differences and opinions. People should do what they feel is best for themselves, it's not my place to tell them what they should or shouldn't be doing.

The only way to know for certain is to see if he over-explains stuff to white people too. Without that comparison, it's all just speculation.
