  'Strawmanning an entire farm', I like that, it's cute. I refer to these other articles because I'm saying there is a double standard. Why are we suddenly talking about banning Breitbart? For writing a provocative article on why women would be happier in traditional rules? If we look at the articles I mention and replace the word 'woman' with 'man', I can't see a lot of difference between what we now are supposed to be outraged by. How is pointing out a double standard in these contrasting articles a straw man?

    Man, i can't tell if you're trolling me, or really can't see it. I'm actually kinda pissed because if you're serious you're being really dense, and if you're trolling you're being really good. The article IS saying women aren't as smart as men, particularly not smart enough to handle freedom and responsibilities without being unhappy. Then you try to bring "capable" as an example, which is ... just a superset of smart? Then you say bb is being censured for that one article, when it's the fact that they're constantly and almost exclusively producing similar hateful stuff. Then you start bringing up imaginary examples that are not at hand, which is honestly the purest kind of strawmanning. And then you try to bring up articles that you claim should be deserving of the same reaction, but are very dissimilar. I hope this helps you grok things, and if not, there's nothing left to say to you.
