I don't understand this post. Do you mean he isn't silly? that was a playful formulation, and I agreed that my idiosyncratic use, more a play on words than anything else, of ad feminam for myself, had created the misimpression that I was making some feminist point, so that I wouldn't do it in the future. I created a misimpression. So I won't use the formulation again. "You silly," if that is what you are referring to, connoted, to me, that the idea that I was making a feminist point was, to me, silly. It was I who made the misimpression, so perhaps I should have said, "Silly me," too.
Not sure that's what you are talking about, though. |
