>Your framing suggests you do not actually care about the quality of life of women. It implies that you think men deserve to have the cleanliness of women preserved.

There's no need to play amateur psychologist in policy debates. You can make your argument without attacking someone.

It isn't intended as a personal attack. But I think the distinction matters. If everything is done for the sake of what men want and what women want has zero role in the debate, ultimately, it doesn't really matter what conclusion is drawn. It will still harm women.

I've found it's not effective to reply to perceived ad-hominem by propagating the offense. Your second sentence doesn't need a preamble.
