I think you were downvoted for using a straw man fallacy. I wasn't saying adulthood was defined in terms of beards. Just that I don't feel like an adult because of my lack of beard. Man, I'd even settle for a great mustache. But nope, nothing.

She was downvoted because correlation does not equal causation!

... and I was making the observation that if a beard is the sign of an adult, then women can't be adults.

Are you sure you feel like an adult, or are you talking about feeling like a man?

This isn't a meaningless distinction, and it also doesn't need to be offensive. Alas, it seems if I want to have public philosophical discussions I should go back to 300 BC.

I dunno.
