Good to hear from you again Lindz. I enjoyed our previous conversation.

I can hardly ignore two exclamation marks in a row!

This one has me confused. It is not clear to me how the question you highlighted expresses hatred of women. It was not my intention to express any particular generalization about women in asking that question. The question does not refer to “women” at all. Perhaps you can help clear my confusion.

The question did provoke an interesting discussion of the relationship between words and reality. If you haven’t already done so, you might want to read through it. I invite you to add your thoughts if you wish. Which reality is the real reality?

There are around 3.5 billion female persons in this world and the number with whom I am personally acquainted is an insignificant portion of the total. My feeling toward women with whom I am unacquainted, almost all the women in the world, is neutral; I cannot hate someone whose existence I am unaware of. Of the few women with whom I am personally acquainted, I can’t think of anyone that I actually hate.

“We get it!”

Who is “we?” How many of you are there?

If for whatever mysterious reason you choose to characterize my question as an expression of hatred, then that is your prerogative. I know who I am and require no outside verification of my self concept.

I am who I am:
