Tbh I only mentioned it because I saw other comments trying to turn the post into yet another game "who has it worse" or "who can we blame so we don't have to put any effort into fixing it".

I also saw some toxic comments stating that men should just pull themselves out of it. I brought up the rights situation because it was another scenario that required more than just one group of people to make any proper change. We've done it before, why not again?

Expecting a group that is already struggling with life to suddenly magic themselves better is unrealistic at best. So, I tried to remind people that working together would be better.

You're fine, it was overly verbose for my taste/consumption, but informative. When I see that much verbosity I'm suspect that it's actually just a ChatGPT-type generated text/comment.

To the point, I was just friendly teasing, by emphasizing via italics, the fact that you were talking about something that shouldn't be done, and then actually doing the thing you said you shouldn't be doing, all in the same comment.

It's all good! I wanted to make sure that I clarified just in case

Fair enough. Sincerely, no insult was meant (unless you really were using ChatGPT, then in that case "fuck you!" >:p ).

or to try to force the topic to change to something else.

Seems like this is the point. No double standards.

Or more like saying we shouldn't do this and then doing what you're saying you shouldn't be doing.

I would have thought the emphasis by italicizing would have been enough to make my point. Apparently it wasn't.

I am trying to understand what you meant to say, since it was not clear.

Check the parts I italicized, they're emphasized to make my point.
