Remember that important word that you missed a while back? 'Tends'? Remember how it took a sentence that wasn't true, and made it true?
This is another place where we need to use that word.
Tendency. That important word 'tends'.
See why bivalence is a problem? Something can't 'tend' to be when you have a bivalent structure. It leads to black and white thinking.
the problem is that you are overlooking the fact that "tends" is the point we are debating. We are arguing over whether it is appropriate to have a system that says "women do X, and men do Y". I have not problem with the idea that "women tend to do X, and men tend to do Y". But that's not the point we are arguing over. You should be talking to jontherobot about including "Tends".
I think we discussed before that my thinking is not black and white (and how "tends" can exist in a bivalent structure), I just don't like the acceptance of generalizations as fact because it tends to lead to the problems we are discussing now.
