You're saying that your interpretation is the only correct interpretation, and anyone who doesn't accept it completely and unquestioningly is in league with Republicans. You dismiss as "flights of fancy" reasonable alternative viewpoints, which I suspect you will now further dismiss as "unreasonable." If you were a man, I would rightly call that mansplaining.
I believe that you haven't experienced scrotum pain. I do not believe that you have met many men for whom women truly are "only good for one thing." I believe that you think you have, but if I made a similarly absolutist statement about how women think, I don't believe you would let the statement stand unchallenged. Instead, you would likely continue to insist that your view is correct and that all views differing from yours are therefore inherently wrong.
You are saying, as you always say, that alternative interpretations are impossible because yours is and must be right, and you condecescendingly dismiss the possibility of discussion because your opinion isn't swallowed whole. You say, as you always say, that you want discussion, when in fact you want people to say "I agree of course."
Will you accept my statement telling you how you think, or will you challenge it?
Have fun with that.
