It is not insulting any gender. Also I think your bar for a "nationalistic insult" is a little low - all countries are open to criticism.

You're right, "insults" was the wrong word. A better word is "flamebait". The last thing we need here is more drive-by gender flamewarrage, and when accounts do this repeatedly (as this one has), we ban them. Hence the warning.

> drive-by gender flamewarrage

if you haven't noticed, that was my point

it's no gender war

it's a cultural problem, competition taken to extremes can't end well
