Meanings
nounyouthsplainer (plural youthsplainers)
plural youthsplainers
- A person who criticizes engages in youthsplaining.
The term attracted massive attention, and apparently a lot of questions, earlier this year after a Facebook event announcing plans to storm U.S. Air Force facility Area 51 went viral. (If you were among the perplexed Area 51 Googlers, we’ve got a youthsplainer on that one, too.)
