> If this was his intention, he failed miserably at it. As I said above, I have no idea what his interpretation is. Sorry, but this is a lie. As hard as you might try to be an unfair adjudicator of this conversation, the parent has made it pretty clear what his intent was, as you point out in your desire to avoid engaging in it: > and I have made it explicitly clear that I have no intention of discussing this topic on this thread. And there it is. You don't have to say something explicitly to mean it. I've repeatedly tried to tell you that this isn't something you can just mention and pretend to not engage in. The very mention of that anecdote was a nod in the direction of misogyny. You don't need to go through the history of the parent to make a confirmed, attested judgement on the parents character, that one statement he made is good enough to prove that.
