44. I accused you of nothing

And let's not bring in "all here". Ad populum is beneath both of us.

You've stated you think Galloway is bigoted in some way. Ok. How? What makes him a misogynist? He noted the online dating culture as it currently stands. What do you think of that issue? Do you see a solution to it? Do you see causes to it? If so, what are the causes?

He's a misogynist? That's a heady thing to call someone. If the accusation is worth making, isn't laying out the reasoning worthwhile as well?

How is he a misogynist? No links, no video, no one else's arguments. Make your own. No ad populum. Just two individuals having a conversation.
