Thank you for sharing your perspective. However, I find it essential to address several problematic aspects of your response.
Firstly, while I understand your intent to focus on a specific demographic—heterosexual men—this doesn’t inherently justify the exclusion of broader perspectives, particularly when discussing a topic as complex as gender dynamics. Sexuality and gender are deeply intertwined with societal norms and stereotypes, which can affect everyone, regardless of their individual orientation or preferences. Your assertion that “every topic doesn’t have to be inclusive” is concerning. The reason inclusivity is so heavily emphasized in today’s discussions is that it challenges the very stereotypes that limit our understanding of each other. When we restrict conversations to certain groups and shut out others, we perpetuate these outdated notions and miss out on a wealth of knowledge and experience that can contribute to a more nuanced understanding. Moreover, the idea that we should stick strictly to the OP’s original questions or thoughts assumes that those thoughts are comprehensive and do not require expansion or challenge. This approach may seem respectful on the surface, but it can actually stifle growth and understanding. Conversations evolve naturally, especially when they touch on complex issues like gender and sexuality. Restricting them to a narrow perspective not only limits the discussion but also reinforces the very stereotypes that contribute to the misunderstandings you’ve mentioned. Lastly, your statement, “don’t try to make me into you,” is an example of the resistance to understanding that perpetuates division. The point of engaging in dialogue, especially in public forums, is to expand our horizons, challenge our biases, and ultimately grow. By shutting down perspectives that differ from your own, you not only miss out on potential insights but also contribute to the echo chambers that polarize us. It’s okay to have a specific focus in your questions, but dismissing broader perspectives as irrelevant or intrusive is not the way forward. Instead of seeing these contributions as distractions, consider them opportunities to deepen your understanding of the very issues you’re exploring. After all, the aim should be to foster a richer, more inclusive dialogue that benefits everyone involved. |
