When you use a plethoric avalanche of fuzzily quasidescriptive
verbiage from which the claim manages to surface that men as a
rule speak more precicely and concisely than do womem, you do
indeed violate your own propounded rule.
And the personality enneagram has nine stations; apply dualistic
thinking to THAT.

Those who have nothing in their favor indeed have nothing to lose, a
position that applies a forteriori to you AND your point of view. I
notice that your previous politeness dropped like a rock when your
fundamentalistic and reductionistic conception was credibly
challenged; I expected as much.

Trying to make logical sense out of your screeds is like trying to
push a stick of butter up a wildcat's nether regions with a red-hot
poker.
