You put the phrase "say "father figure" in the context of discussing family structure" in quotes, but I don't see where that phrase appeared in the comment I replied to. Is that the phrase I supposedly deleted, or was it some other phrase? If it was, where did I supposedly delete it from? If it was some other phrase, what phrase was it?

Edit: Ah! I see... it appears later in the comment, nowhere near the line I quoted. I get it now.

In any case, if your point is that we use the phrase "father figure" and not "father" in the context of discussing family structure, can you point me at how you arrived at that conclusion? You might be right, but you appear to be pulling the claim out of thin air.
