Behind an immature comment like that, which is likely used to try to shame the OP by pretending their argument doesn't warrant a humane response, can only lie an immature man. Am I close? I've seen this type of gaslighting abuse, to intimidate women, happen only too often in real life. It needs to stop.

Did OP's commment touch something vulnerable in you? Did you feel scared? Is that why you resorted to a vague, grandiose, belittling response? Was it too far out of your bubble?

Easier to shame others with vague non-word responses than to meaningfully engage.
