Noted. I was not being very specific/using sufficient disclaimers in this discussion.

Disclaimer: if you are interacting this way with women on LW or interested in rationality, I am >90% sure that you are missing out on some valuable interesting/intellectual conversations.

Hypothesis: if you are interacting this way with women who aren't interested in rationality (who you don't think are interested), it may be contributing to a self-fulfilling prophecy that women aren't interested in rationality. (Disclaimer: I'm probably guilty of this for both genders, in that I don't introduce enough of my potentially interested friends to LW ideas, period.)
