OK. I did not casually dismiss Ann Coulter. That is my considered opinion after following her writing and her appearances for almost a decade. I liked her very much at first but then I found her to have topics on which she was irrational and illogical. Her attacks on POTUS are often over the top, swinging from being on the Trump train to Trump is destroying America & back in a few days time. I guess I am in the position of thinking that anyone who follows Ann for a few years is fully aware of her wild swings. I enjoy her when she’s on target and just shrug when she says stupid things like women shouldn’t vote.

I am in disagreement with you about the remainder of your post but intelligent well meaning people can disagree. Based on life experience we can use words differently.

In my field to say all women or all men is just unthinkable. Individual differences are paramount. I posted that article link because in my world showing that there exist women who sacrificed life, limb and health for America’s liberty disproves the hypothesis that women as a class vote to promote welfare and giveaways rather than policies in America’s interest. I was asked if there was any election in which women voted majority Republican. I responded with 3 examples. That doesn’t mean they always do or mostly do; it means that a blanket statement that they don’t is wrong.

The problem is not with men or women it is with the education that American’s receive and the politically correct version of history, economics and logic they are taught. The dumbing down is deliberate because it favors socialism & globalist policies. President Trump is bringing Americans up to speed on the realities of life and the common sense that is conservatism and the need a vibrant, competitive economy where the necessities are manufactured & grown inside our borders.

And that kind of duplicity doesn’t do your credibility any favors. You were explicitly told the statement you objected to was a generalization.

Intentionally conflating generalizations with a universal premise is a time-worn tactic of liberal mendacity, and unfit for anyone who claims to be a person of goodwill.

I note a measure of conciliation in your post for which I am grateful. Nevertheless, you wrote what you wrote, and that’s all I can go by.

If you insist on maintaining the interchangeability of the sexes with regard to politics and “patriotism” with nothing but anecdotes and ad hominem insinuations for support there’s really no way to change your mind, even if you’re wrong.
