Sexist calling in.

I think that "He treated you as a guy, probably out of respect." is somewhat taken out of context here.

Here's context:

Intimidating scones to kleinbl00 after kleinbl00's quite harsh encouragement speech:

    I'm so glad most of hubski is not like you.

My response:

    He is guy, you're girl. There is cultural difference here and you both should know about it because you should be able to write dialogue.

    If you get insulted, you are insulted.

    If a guy is insulted, he is insulted. But as much he is flattered about the fact that someone thought that he is strong enough to take such insults. (and you girls are supposed to be complicated...) He treated you as a guy, probably out of respect.

But yes, I'm sexist. I've tried this Jailbreak patriarchy and I found out I treat women differently from men.

How? I speak to men quite bluntly. I soften up my language quite much for women. This ranting is point to direction that I should increase my sexist behavior if I don't want to hurt any womans feelings. Or is there some way I can improve? Or do you want me to leave?
