"It wasn't well aimed.  That was my point.  Gender and sex are often used interchangeably, but when discussing the topic formally, to confuse the two belies either ignorance, or intentional trolling. I figured I'd shut both down…"

"Two points, Sir; 1) That is precisely the discussion topic- the role of the sexes. 2) I would never suggest to a gentleman he leave a discussion because of a perceived disagreement. That reaction was clearly in opposition to the Art of Manliness."
