I know you'll respond with some ad hominem attack that doesn't reference this message at all, but a few questions.

How is asking if you're okay a show of belligerence? How are any of your actions a show of decorum? You started by calling me illiterate, and just now called me a fuckwit. How does that fall into any definition of good faith communication? I stopped being angry at you. I'm not trying to insult you. But everything you say is so sad and pathetic. I legitimately haven't been able to get you out of my head because I can't stop thinking about your complete lack of self reflection.

A good half of your comments are insulting people for asking you questions, or responding to you at all. Your response to being acknowledged is anger. You push away everyone. You must be so alone. That warrants sympathy.

I didn't say I didn't understand anything. I'm not confused. I asked if you're okay. Sympathy is not confusion.

But really, I've been going through your comment history. You attack everyone over everything. Are you okay?

Yup. You got me. I can't read the comment you deleted.

But, are you okay? This thread was filled with you attacking people trying to talk about cats. Do you need to talk something out?

Well he is on the left banister. But it's the banister in his right? Is this an allegory?

You just say this every time anyone asks you for evidence, don't you? Well, I'm glad you found more people to scream at.

So, no. You're just looking for someone to hear you scream. Cool.

Can you point out the wilful ignorance or deliberate belligerence? Not including the guy who called the stuff he didn't like to read a "miasma of stupidity"

My guy, this was a respectful conversation. Where the hell did that come from? You're allowed to disagree with @Xanthobilly, but you're way out of line.

There is, though, if you define "toxicity" in a totally weird and nonsensical way.

What makes this a weird or nonsensical thing to call toxic, though? A large number of women, and all the women in my life, take issue with being called females. Am I, a man, or you, who I'm assuming is also a man, in a position to call those women, who I respect as my partner, boss, coworkers, and friends, nonsensical?

So, those are all instances of "Male" as an adjective, and most of them are still pretty clinical or professional in nature. The problem stated was using Female as a noun in non-clinical situations. Like staring at a strangers ass, in the screenshot. Is there an example where you would call a man "a male", like the original post?

To use your example, it would be saying something like: "It's just a male bonding night with the males"

Is that not a cold, detached way to describe a man? Used by police trying to do their job? Can you think of a usage for male that's more informal?

Well, some advice you didn't ask for, and that I don't always follow: it's easier to start a conversation where it is, and direct people towards the productive conversation you want to have, than to start off by calling someone a villain for something they already said. You didn't make your point easy to appreciate.

I will say you've given me some food for thought, though.

So, telling people to not try and be funny, even those you agree with, is definitely alienating your allies. I hear what you're saying, but I have also seen parents losing their ever loving shit at PTA meetings... And to say that everyone must treat those ignorant displays with quiet respect, because CRT was mentioned... Seems a bit beyond the pale.

Okay, so, I am reading what you're saying, and I don't really know how one could make a joke that isn't, by your understanding, part of the conservative agenda.

And if that's what you think, I am curious why you're looking at memes at all.

I think you're alienating your allies here. This is clearly intended to be left leaning, and you're lumping OP with Trump and facists.

Look, you just had your world view challenged. You have been informed that you may be doing something that contributes to misogyny.

The non-sexist thing to do is to listen. Educate yourself on the subject. Learn how you can be a better person.

The sexist thing to do is to double down. Talk over every other voice. Lash out at the world and claim you are the only person who talks to women.

It's also the thoughts and words of the women who hear it. But maybe they aren't normal people in your opinion.

So, you had an unnecessary surgery so everyone should shut up?
