Huh, what's this mean?

I gloss over Mets arguments as I assume people do with me.

Mets thing was pretty clearly an appeal to emotion.

Though entirely possibly came from "personal" experience.

There's a ****ing line, bro. You can't just vomit your thoughtlessness everywhere and expect people to take it.

This is why I think if you are going to have a discussion about life you should use non-human examples

Tadpoles
Joeys in pouches
Etc

You thought you were agreeing with her!

You gotta learn that every thought you have isn't important, Luckbox. And I do too! (though I'm pretty good about this in real life)

um a decent way to cliffs notes it would be " i'm claiming my uninformed opinion is worth as much as your informed opinion + scientific facts, and i know this doesn't make sense, so i'll just pretend like i don't want to discuss it and that the issue is complicated"

I think she assumed that I was calling her a kangaroo, in retrospect.

Ha, you're like the worst example for when I try to defend men as not being mansplainers and things like that.

Just autistic still could fit!

Yes but your opinions on life are vile.

Obviously because they need to metamorphize, caterpillars are not alive. At least not in the cocoon. Only full butterflies are life.

This is just a friendly reminder to everyone as we discuss abortion that science is and always will be political!

Our approach to life seems to be a little slanted towards placental mammals which is natural given that we are placental mammals, but most biologists I think take a broader approach.

This is why I bring up marsupials and amphibians and insects.

Ultimately all go through their different manners of gestation but to say that one form of gestation is life and another isn't seems arbitrary. Obviously caterpillars are alive and dragonfly niads and joeys and fetuses. The pro-choice crowd could just concede that and move on and it would save silly discussions like this.

Anyway, I feel that "I have experience too" response just perfectly proves my theory that you're not a terrible person, you're just painfully and genuinely too stupid to ever understand simple concepts, and thats not necessarily a choice you've made. Your arrogance and volume can also be attributed to your unfathomable stupidity, so.. I'll try to be less upset going forward with all the tremendously ignorant and repugnant things you say.

We can all guess at how others might think about things but that is all they are. I certainly don't try to speak for how all men think about things. People are different fwiw.

Way to mansplain it, buddy

Unfortunately he won't see my post either, so we'll call it a half drink
