Yes, that would be illogical, if anyone did that.

Rob never called you out. Why are you taking this so personally?

When your post is in response to one of mine, it's easy to draw that inference, if not in particular, at least in the collective sense.

Did I say that he had insulted me personally or did I say that his post was insulting?

My post responded to the point you made, which was defensive to the very notion of gender bias, in a collective sense.

Yes, but limited to the Political Chat universe, a universe Rob sees as populated be unconscious woman haters. This is why I called him out. He hasn't responded in anything like a substantive manner.

Have you read any of Joad's "cankles" jokes?

I was waiting for Rob to mention Joad but he didn't. I believe that Joad is a misogynist but I'm not prepared to comment on how greatly it effects his opinion of Hillary, though it's influence on his rhetoric is undeniable.

I'm glad one of you men stated Joad's misogynist tendencies. While it is very obvious, I knew I couldn't be the one to point it out.

Personally, I think the author in the Atlantic should've pointed out some of the flaming misogyny on the left as evidenced by the rhetoric at Caucus99percent.org and KossacksforSanders.org on Reddit. It's almost like Drudge and Breitbarts for the left by some posters over there.

He leaves himself open to charges that he's biased for Clinton.
