Did Fessy Shafaat mansplain Nany Gonzalez? 'The Challenge' fans say 'he needs to learn his place on the show'
Fessy Shafaat's competitive spirit may be appreciated elsewhere but the agents on 'The Challenge: Double Agents' don't seem to support the energy he brings to every task. Especially his current partner, Nany Gonzalez, who has often complained about how eager and relentless he gets with his instructions during the daily challenges.
The Global Domination task tested her patience. It required them to work in tandem. The agents were locked in a metal ball and were instructed to push it forward so that they could roll over a few mines and collect points. On the surface, it may have appeared to be a simple task but required a lot of working together if they intended to be ahead in the game.

Fessy was persistent with his pointers on how they can go about the task. Even though his heart was in the right place, Nany was unable to appreciate the aggressiveness with which he approached the challenge. They didn't have safety gear on, and Nany's biggest worry was she'll injure herself and break her bones if Fessy rushed anymore. Meanwhile, fans took to social media to complain about Fessy mansplaining Nany. Most didn't appreciate his tone.
"Fessy mansplaining to Nany as if she wouldn't understand what to do without him," one user commented on the show's official Facebook page, while another shared: "Yup and they fall even before they are down the ramp." "Scarface Messy needs to learn his place on the show," another wrote. "Fessy is an animal and not in the good sense. He is just too much," a viewer complained. "No surprise tho, he won't change," another wrote.
The fans may appear fierce with their comments but one cannot fault them for it because Fessy, at times, may have taken his passion for winning to the next level. His infamous Hall Brawl performance against "friend" Nelson Thomas had everyone surprised. He was consumed about winning his gold skull and stopped at nothing to win one. Although his competitive spirit fits well with the format of the show, his fellow cast members thought he needed to draw a line somewhere.
