The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.

Challenging senses 2 and 3: #2: "(UK, slang, derogatory) Patriarchal or patronising discourse, particularly between men"; #3 "(same glosses) The results of any patriarchal or patronising discourse or behaviour". So something like "mansplaining", supposedly? If it's real, consider redefining, since "patriarchal" and "patronising" are hardly the same thing. Can women produce "cockwomble"? etc. Equinox ◑ 18:33, 18 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

While the overwhelming preponderance of uses I can find refer to a person, I did find a few references to "a load of cockwomble" (but not on durably archived media). Also, "going cockwomble" (again not durably archived). Kiwima (talk) 22:04, 18 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
