Well fair enough there is nothing more to say on this issue and I agree with you that on some level our response to philosophy is subjective.
"Or maybe you're still upset with me about the feminist discussion. I dropped that in mid-stream because I knew we were on opposite sides of that ideological fence."
I don't know if I would agree with that though. You made a statement that was counter-factual about women being in greater danger of strangers than men. I then responded by correcting you. You then ran away rather than be mature and admit you were mistaken or back up your claim.
I don't know if that makes us on opposite sides of an ideological fence as much as it makes one of us right and the other one wrong. I'm for women's rights as they are human rights but the claim of discrimination actually has to be true for there to be any solution to the discrimination.
Most feminist claims are not true: like women facing greater danger, the pay gap. A few actually are but it is difficult to see how they could be solved: Women not being accorded the same respect in public speaking and being interrupted more.
Is it normal to think that Satan is the good guy in the Bible?
