    Almost every attack on feminism here is based on logical fallacies - to hate because one is not thinking clearly is truly sad.

    I see you attempt to employ a logic fallacy here by insinuating that an anti-feminist is a feminist hater or that it has anything inherently to do with rationality.

    An argument is rational if it's rational. It a logic fallacy if it's a logic fallacy. A rational criticism of feminism is not hate.

    This question is listed under questions in my account but I don't remember posting it as a question. This was an answer to someone else's post. Also if this question is in my questions why can I reply to it too. Weird.

    You're right. Logical fallacies are wrong, whether it is a feminist, an anti-feminist, or someone with a different or no label, using them. We are all taught how to avoid them, in school. Perhaps our insistence on using them anyway is evidence of a trend (or several trends). Young people tend to be ignorant, due to a lack of experiences. Older folks tend to mix opinions and facts. And Americans have been suffering from a declining education system, that spews out diplomas to those who haven't earned them. This all leads to shockingly dumb questions and answers.

    I believe in debate to resolve differences not trying to shut the other side down. Let them have their say and they might even teach you something. Don't have your say and you lose the debate before it even began. Rely on name calling, insults and strawmen and you also lose the debate by proving you have no argument to backup your position.

    This repeat was an only BARELY acceptable answer, that dishonestly dodged the base point of the original question entirely, left out much else, and presumed much.

    It certainly does not deserve a question of its own.
