I had suspected that it might be because someone had tried to infer my position on such matters from my asking of the question and didn’t like the implication. I did, after all, admit to including the thesis that ‘the observed high conformance of a group of females is influenced by an aspect of female psychology’ in my list of possible explanations for the high conformance in that group, even though I ended up rejecting that hypothesis.
(I suspect that your position viz a viz whether either gender is superior is not that different than my own. But to be clear, my position is that both genders possess great capacity for type 2 cognition, which is the most important measurement of human success. Any difference between healthy adults of either gender in their use of such cognition comes down to social factors, which can be changed to create a fairer society.)
I’m still surprised about the second paragraph’s inaccuracy, though. In my experience, the chants of “USA, USA, USA” occur at sporting matches against other countries. That’s not an ‘internal to America’ thing. Then again, I don’t live in America and haven’t for many years. I chose America because I was trying to cater my words to my audience. Perhaps that was wrong and I should have spoken from experience instead. (I’m Australian.)
I want to use every word accurately, so I would be most appreciative if you could give me a few examples of jargon I’ve used and a description (or link to one) of the way it should actually be used.
Thanks,
Avi
PS—Yes. It was just one vote, so maybe I got re-upvoted or something. Oh well. The experienced alerted me to an issue. That’s all anyone could ask of it.
Ah.
