I'm sorry, but that's a lousy answer. It's lousy because you don't trust him or other people to give your perspective a fair chance. When you tell me, "I'm happy we can reflect publically" and then clam up and punt when someone else asks you to expand, you not only lose credibility, you're also stealing credibility from the ideas you're defending.

"I roll my eyes and say, 'because feminism'."

I think my degree of investment was entirely appropriate given the new turn of the discourse. But! But but but! As you were kind to me, I have paid it forward as well! I've actually offered an explanation.

Investigation of who I am talking to leads me to believe my first suggestion might still have more impact on their thinking though.

I do not trust the people here to give my perspective a fair chance. You're right. Why would I?

But also, I was on the bus and felt a prompt response was more useful than an exhaustive one.
