    I don't think I'm being insensitive in any way, just trying to be logical about it. People need to calm down a bit and stop getting so damn defensive when anyone has questions or a different view. I'm even on the same side, it's not like i'm blaming the victims, being antifeminist, or pretending this is not a big deal.

    I explained my view on the gender issue in a previous post.

    Trudeau is a fake with good PR.
    Your lack of education about this topic is disrespectful. Expecting your opinion to be treated as equally valid despite a lack of subject matter knowledge, or even sense is disrespectful.

    I don't know you well enough to know if you're doing it by design, to try and make an unpalatable idea appear more palatable, or if you're just ignorant, but either way, this kind of crap should not be tolerated, because the effect is the same.

    And somehow, for some reason, you think you get to dictate what has to be tolerated and what not. Awesome.
