I don't agree that trying to imagine how women might feel is a problem.

- suifbwish 7y agoThese arguments are rather silly as all someone has to do is pretend to be a woman, respond back and say the other is wrong because that’s not how they experience it as a woman.
- will4274 7y agoThe rules here are that you respond to the strongest interpretation of what somebody said, not the weakest. Trying to imagine how women might feel isn't a problem. Posting about what you imagine woman might feel to the extent that it crowds out actual women saying how they feel (e.g. being the top response) is a problem.

I don't control where my response sits, so it sounds like you're saying the problem is that I decided to speak at all. I am having a hard time reading the comment any other way than "don't express opinions about how you imagine a woman might feel".
