I don't care what you think you were doing. This is not the place for you to come to debate anybody, because your opinions are not important or relevant.

Not an excuse. It's the absolute truth, but your deluded boy brain does not see it. You have absolutely no idea, because you're a sexist who has no clue what women go through.

Do you really think that a woman working at, say, an investment firm could get away with criticizing her male co-workers in the same way that they criticize each other? How would they react to her? What are women called when they are direct and honest?

But if your goal is to be successful at a company, do you really think women can get away with criticizing men like a male would?

I bet it worked though!

Unfortunately, "doing the best job you can" is not enough for a woman to reach the top of her field. That's enough for males, including you, but women have to go beyond what men do in order to just be taken half as seriously. As a male, you have no clue what this means or what women go through, so don't pretend that

Yes, of course. If women are raised in a society where the only way they can get even a little bit of power is to participate in the oppression, they will join in. I understand that. I'll give you a couple of examples.

I'm not a sociopath, although it's easier to lash out insults than really address what I'm saying.

I disagree. The patriarchy doesn't hurt everyone. This is something feminists have to say to assuage males that we care about them too, because of course, it's our job.

No, you're talking about shutting down all criticism of Islam.

Yeah, I know that. I prefer to call it Jew hatred because that's what it really is.

1. The word "Islamophobia" is garbage. It's meaningless. Honest criticism is not a phobia, and trying to dismiss it as such is not an argument.

"Islamic women have a voice, and it's my job to sit down, shut up, and listen to them and be supportive of what they want rather than play white lady savior. At best it can be hopelessly foolish and tone deaf, and at worst out and out racist."

Ah, yes! You are like a script, my dear. Let me go down the list of insults ignoramuses like you throw around to avoid honestly criticizing Islam.

I'm talking about Islamic law, dear. I'm talking about the fact that child marriage is legal, widespread, and happens everyday.

Oh and one more thing—Islam isn't a race.

I feel fine about imposing my values of not beating women or raping children.

Especially since Islam isn't a race, and she didn't mention anything about race. It's an ideology. Nobody would call criticism of Christianity racist. That is pathetic.

Oh, I see. So I can't judge any culture unless I'm in it. Does American culture get that pass?

People are upset because liberals are supposed to come in and act like white knights for Islam, when she's absolutely correct.
