Can we please keep gender warfare off HN? (or at least when it has nothing to do with the story/discussion)

The sentence would have worked just as well with "being condescending" in place of "mansplaining". To me, mansplaining has clear gender overtones.

No. It's literally got the word 'man' in it. Nothing gender neutral about that. Please stop and don't encourage this kind of behavior.

I'd say: no.

I literally never heard of it used in a women-explaining context.

I use "womansplaining" or "ladysplaining" when i'm talking with other women, sometimes.
