Further more in my mind it’s only be generalizing if I said ALL WOMEN
If I say, "Women are superficial", it means the same as "All women are superficial".
No it doesn’t. All women mean every single woman, some women , means a minority or few women, women is less then all women more then 1 woman.
If someone said "Apples are red", wouldn't that seem like an incorrect statement, because there are also green and yellow apples?
Ah seee but you mess upped. Most people do say apples are red. Doesn’t mean all apples are red, or they’d said that. Apples come in red, hello, orange and green.
Cars are blue. People say that too. In fact it’s quite common for people to say similar things about everything without people accusing them of applying it to all of that thing.
Ps4s are black.but some are also gold or white.
If they said all apples are red I’d call them out.
If someone said cars are white would you feel the need to say they are generalizing and demand they say most before that statement in every future conversation. Or would yiu say yeah cars are white but they also come in other colors.
See apples are red. It’s tru yiu see red apples everywhere so apples are red, similarly apples are green. Women are superficial , women aren’t superficial. Entirely difffrom all women are superficial and no women are superficial. Both are definitive states,ents applying to every single last apple or woman. Without that defining word apples just means something between one apple and all apples. It’s undefined so it could be 5 apples but it could be 1 billion apples.
Same as you wouldn’t say look at this 55 apples you’d say look at those apples. People don’t use defining words in every senstance of everyday conversations.
I’m only human, so to expect me to use defining words in every sentence relating to every object in every post in every thread and then to bash me for not is crazy. Whys it my fault people assume I’m talking about all women then take it personally?
I’m fine with women saying I’m not that way or not all women are that way, it’s the no women are that way your just insane and lying that pisses me off. It’s devaluation of my experiences. I don’t see men do the same to women who come and complain about how men have treated them. Generally besides boo, we comfort them, acknowledge men are like that but tell them not all men are and offer them hugs and a listening ear.
