My SO put it perfectly when I apologized for talking too much, she said "it's ok, I know you like to listen to yourself"

And honestly, I do talk to myself when nobody's around and there isn't a huge difference in what I'm saying in either context.

I'm not having a conversation with myself, I'm just kind of thinking out loud.

Mansplaining is so 2015. I thought the culture wars had moved on? I see this is 3 years old, but it's pretty outré even for 2022.

This is just a good approach. I treat humans like cute animals. Not gonna get bit by a bunny and hope it burns in hell.

It's super easy not to mansplain. When you bring up a subject, just ask if they know about it, then segue into a conversation where you can both participate.

I often explain stuff for others so they can verify my information, it also gives me another chance to go over the idea in my head.
