It's not great to assume stuff just because someone holds a different view. It'd be like me assuming you are a woman for being emotional and illogical. Not great and can be viewed as insulting, even when you feel it's an informed and fair guess.

It's just better to keep to the facts known and not argue with your assumptions.

Can you point out which bits of what I wrote were emotional and illogical?

Your whole argument relies on that a medical professionals, plurar, would be more likely to be incorrect about a medical situation than a random hypothetical person based on how the person feels.

If based on that I guessed you would be a woman of course most of the time I'd be right. But voicing such assumptions and going off on that seems like it'd be rude and detrimental to the conversation.

Bruh, I literally gave you peer reviewed scientific studies as sources. Lmao.

Tell me again about how this hurt your feelings and what a mean lady I am for doing it.

The studies don't actually show what you hoping that they show, that is that your run-of-the-mill person was better at knowing what issues they have. If doctor after doctor keeps telling you your issue isn't what you think it is, you might want to consider their words. That's all.

Tell me again about how this hurt your feelings and what a mean lady I am for doing it.

I've just been taught that assuming someone's gender, skin colour and stuff like that is pretty yikes. I don't mind rude though.

So what I'm seeing here is that you really don't read so good, huh? That's ok, literacy isn't everybody's strong suit. Maybe go ask your mum or sister to explain what I wrote to you, they might have an easier time getting through on your level.

Not sure if congratulating women or insulting them. Yikes either way for gender based insults. Do better.

Lmao, way to go proving you can't read.
