Do you want me to just defer to random internet person's viewpoints instead of my own experience. Is that how you live your life?
The facts of the matter are that empirically women in SA are not even on the same plane of existence as women in the US, regardless of the fact that true gender equality doesn't exactly exist in the US. Evidence of such is in the article for this HN post, which is "women are allowed to play video games now"
- DoreenMichele 6y agoDo you want me to just defer to random internet person's viewpoints instead of my own experience. Is that how you live your life? No, I want you to follow the guidelines for HN of being respectful. Or do you think that somehow doesn't apply to me for some reason?
- oh_sigh 6y agoI think you said something silly and I said as such. I don't think it's disrespectful to give my honest opinion on a statement, or to call something I see as silly silly. I never said you were a bad person for thinking these things, just that your statements do not mesh at all with my understanding of reality or, frankly, the widely understood differences between US and Saudi life. Just a small note, but HN guidelines also say to not complain about downvotes.
