I'm sorry for being so 'meta' in here, but here I go again. One thing you could ask yourself is why feel the need to that discussion in the first place.
I have my own thoughts on the male-female dynamic that are by no means mainstream and could offend a whole bunch of people. But rather than inflate a sense of 'disconnect', I now try to find the 'harmony' and to only discuss these things in the right setting and with the right type of people.
In hindsight, I feel that seeking out such discussions was really just a combination of on the one hand confirming how much more unique, smart and reasonable/rational I was in comparisons to other, and on the other hand a way of justifying my inability to deal with the 'otherness' (of women, social people, etc.).
Not only did this behavior actively hurt others at times, it didn't really matter that much to my own life. I could've simply quit engaging with people who disagree with me to the point of 'active' disharmony, and spent my time with people who are more, well, agree-able. Or I could've disliked their beliefs, but given it a rest because in the grand scheme of things not being lonely is often preferable to being 'right' (within certain limits, of course).
