It might be interesting to read what you have to say, but you need to chill, organize your thoughts, and stop calling other posters idiots for disagreeing with you. Right now it feels like we&amp;#x27;re catching half of an angry shower argument against someone who&amp;#x27;s not here.&lt;p&gt;I can tell, because I&amp;#x27;ve made posts like this before, and I always regretted it later. Have your angry argument in a journal or text file (Lately I&amp;#x27;ve really liked Markdown with source control). Then revisit it later, and add in the side you&amp;#x27;re arguing &lt;i&gt;against&lt;/i&gt;. Then revise it so that you&amp;#x27;re actually making a clear point, and remove all the personal insults. Then post it here, because I want to read it. But until then, I have no idea WTF you&amp;#x27;re on about or why you&amp;#x27;re so defensive of a very-long-dead philosopher.</text><parent_chain><item><author>peoplefromibiza</author><text>[flagged]</text></item><item><author>schrodinger</author><text>There&amp;#x27;s a slight implication because it only covers men that women are the source of unhappiness (e.g. the nagging wife trope), but I agree it&amp;#x27;s trivial and likely unintentional.
