You're right about Anne Frank. A similarly disabled kid in a poor family in a poor country would feel better to have a private tutor. Life is not a zero sum game. By getting her that private tutor, Anne Frank's parents did the entire world a favor, and disabled people in particular. Maybe even that kid in the poor country.
This argument is about institutional sexism, the repeated exposure to which constitutes abuse. Ask any psychologist about the effects of random punishment that has no relationship to what the animal does.
I'm not talking about my personal experience in the classroom here. There are lots of studies on this topic. The researcher who first chose to study this picked a great statistical equation. It has one variable of principal interest, for starters: Whom does the teacher call on to answer? If that's all you want to know, then adjusting for the number of boys vs. girls who raise their hands, the ratio of boys to girls in the class, etc. becomes simple. The data becomes really easy to analyze, so you can easily find lots of studies on different areas of this topic, depending on your journal access, or even with none.
I'm sick of searching up studies for people who don't even bother to read the quotes. There's a gem in the first one, and no one in the MRA crowd even bothered to read the entire two paragraphs. I post a study that smacks feminist orthodoxy in the face, and no one even notices.
If I wrote in response to that crew with the hope that they were seriously paying attention, I'd really feel like a schmuck. However, knowing that neutral third parties will read my methodical demolition of the asshattery in various posts around here makes me feel okay about bothering with replying to it.

Keep trotting out the same tired nonsense, get the same reply. You should know this pattern by now.

I accused you of bigotry. That doesn't mean I think you're a bigot all the time. Do you imagine that people have only one aspect? I don't. As your notable traits go, a tendency to make bigoted comments wouldn't even break the top ten. If you imagine that I only think of you as a bigot, or primarily think of you as a bigot, or even regularly think of you as a bigot, it could not be further from the truth.
Your single-minded persistence does impress me. Have you ever considered using your powers for good?
The way you said "f**k bigots" and said how I expressed bigotry made it look like you were throwing me in the same grouping. I will admit a major issue I struggle with is extreme thinking. I also wasn't being impeccable with my word earlier.
I used to really want to present a new voice or atleast have a unique one that could shine through the muck of conformity that plagues the Bible Belt. Instead, I was shot down and ripped apart by people like my older brother.
He's fairly harmless to me, but he and his boot-lickers create a toxic atmosphere in L&D. I can't count the number of female feminists who have left because of him. That crew may not want to date a feminist, but I do. By harming those women to the point where they leave, he hurts my chances.
Truthfully, I actually like Boo and find him to be pretty funny and smart about certain things, but if someone could show me a single person who has benefited romantically from any of his dating advice, I would eat my own hat. Taking a clown seriously is a mistake.
Uh-oh...
Well, yes some men did, by teaching them to stop being lapdogs, so....it's time for you to eat your Fedora hat!
You can add mayo to it.
Not quite. Discouraging people from romance is not the kind of benefit I was referring to.......
What I'd prefer is to be shown one person on this forum who is now in a happy romantic relationship thanks (at least in part) to the deluge of advice you've dispensed over the years.
Have the person(s) PM me with the specific advice you gave them that helped them successfully find love.
The hat is seasoned and prepared. All I need is the name. Should be easy enough for a Lebanese Love Guru like yourself........

>Be in a relationship
Pick one.
So, you've chosen to remain single, when will you chose to be happy?
The two aren't actually mutually exclusive. I'm sorry you've managed to convince yourself otherwise.

I don't disagree with you. I rarely post here for a reason.
My advice:
If your goal is to find a women to date, I would suggest looking elsewhere......basically anywhere but wrongplanet...... I was essentially able to figure out how to successfully date by doing the exact opposite of the advice usually given on this forum.
When the guys here ignore (or react with clear hostility) to the advice of women aspies or successful aspie daters in favor of embracing the proven terrible (low self-esteem reinforcing) advice of equally unsuccessful people, they are mostly just harming themselves in the end.
Most of the people I recognize that still post here regularly appear to be in the same position they were when I registered here 5 years ago (back when I was utterly clueless about dating.) Most still can't even get out the gate. That's because this forum it is not in any way a place people go for actual dating advice. It's a pity-party/echo-chamber.
Deep down, I believe most of these guys simply don't know any better. I would recommend trying to shift your attitude to one of pity rather than hostility as I think you'd have a higher chance of getting through to them that way (as remote as that may be.) Calling someone a bigot, although justified for certain posters, is the easiest way to get someone to not listen to you.
Truthfully, I actually like Boo and find him to be pretty funny and smart about certain things, but if someone could show me a single person who has benefited romantically from any of his dating advice, I would eat my own hat. Taking a clown seriously is a mistake.
At least you are allowed to get rejected here. Most places are full of arrogant pricks that would talk down to anyone who's been rejected, and expect everyone to have forced confidence.

Anyone who gives you crap for getting rejected can immediately be dismissed. Everyone gets rejected, most certainly the person who's giving you crap for it.

On the topic of feminism:
I'm not a fan of GB Trudeau's political leanings, but I do find his comic entertaining. This one quite neatly satirizes my own sentiments on feminism and its (ir)relevancy in contemporary western society. In case you're unfamiliar with Doonesbury, B.D. (the male character in this particular comic) is the archetypal white, male, Protestant (I guess), conservative, war hawk, combat veteran, patriot, Republican, etc. He spent most of his life wearing a helmet of some form or another, at first as a star football player, and later as a soldier and public servant; when he finally removed his head covering, the covered part of his head retained its youthful color while the exposed part has turned white with age. His sweet trophy wife evolved from a ditzy blonde airhead whose leftist views unquestionably followed pretty much whatever "progressive" winds were current remains a feminist, yet a much wiser, mature, experienced, and articulate version of her younger self. Here, B.D. wants to rub in the fact that their daughter is not a feminist, not realizing that she has already unconsciously espoused feminist attitudes while not outright identifying as one. Let's watch:
What I'm referring to is how a lot of male feminists label men as misogynists JUST for being nice to women he is attracted to, despite the fact that male feminists do the exact same thing. If a male feminist can be attracted to a women without "thinking he's entitled to sex" then so can a fedora wearing Nice Guy TM.

SJW feminists just project their own sexism onto other men. Of course, Geekonychus is going to erroneously call me an MRA/MGTOW/Incel (I am not any of these three) but he's just a crybaby because I am not self-flagellating myself.
