Upvoted. I would assume so, because male politicians like buying guns and stuff. They need data to know where to point them.

  Then maybe you should make your point openly, instead of this stupid dogwhistle. Are you saying women shouldn't be allowed to vote?

    > Are you saying women shouldn't be allowed to vote? The few comments you have left under this conversation serving it way better than all points I ever made (if I ever made the points to that, shall be added as a disclaimer). It's sort of funny you even fail to see that.

      Classic bad-faith troll response. You refuse to openly state your position, because you know deep down that it is despicable and indefensible. I am against the surveillance state, but I am not weak, gullible, or lazy enough to believe that it is somehow the result of women's suffrage. The two are not related, and your inability to untangle them shows that misogyny is more important to you than freedom.

        Normally I wouldn't dignify that with a response, but just to put a final dot I'll share a few things. Speaking of openly stating a position - sapienti sat. Can't see how more open it can be, but it's certainly not of everyones capacity to have ability to comprehend a thought. Fully aware of that. For the rest of your comment - if you kind enough to pardon me for giving unsolicited advice - if I were you i would rather try not to manifest your insecurities but rather work on them, or at least do not show them in civilized discussions, which we all would like to have here on HN. And certainly would be great if we can keep your fantasies like misogyny and sorts out of the discussion. Dixi.
