This is a counter, specifically, to " because it is a social construct, therefore I won't do it."
It's more nuanced. It's 'this is a social construct, therefore I can just decide whether I want to accept it, and I dont'
Except in this example, it's a kid using the argument to get out of "anything and everything". This isn't a necessarily a nuanced situation, this is using their own logic against them because they think they found a cheat code to not doing what they don't want to do.
Ah fair! I wasn't super clear, I was more talking about my comment than the original post.
