Yes, any by trying to reply in the negative to everyone supporting the mai post, YOU are still directly attempting to contradict the sentiment while not admitting to it.

Stop it. Stop trying to reinforce stereotypes to protect your own feelings. It's pitiful. Yes, responding in a, "but it's kinda tru tho" way IS defending the stereotype.

You seem really angry about a pretty innocuous conversation on the internet. All I was saying is that there's a bit more nuance here than was being suggested. I'm not saying either side of the argument is entirely wrong. Just sharing my personal experience.

No, I'm getting angry at you literally and completely failing to understand the entire point made by the post.

Yes, it is sad that people need to feel extra special to the point where they hold on to detrimental stereotypes.

No, no, that's not what I was talking about
