Brian Shuts Down Feminist’s Argument with Facts and Logic

In a heated debate, a woke feminist passionately argues that “women are systematically oppressed in every part of society”. She claims that women earn less, are constantly disrespected, and have to live in fear, while men enjoy all the privilege.

Brian Atlas listens patiently, then calmly responds:
“Let’s talk facts, not feelings.”

He starts with the wage gap. “The commonly quoted 77 cents to the dollar doesn’t account for job choice, hours worked, risk, or career breaks. When adjusted, the gap nearly disappears.”

She interrupts, saying it’s “still rooted in sexism.”
Brian replies, “Then why do childless women in their 20s now earn slightly more than men in the same group in major cities? That’s not patriarchy—that’s choice.”

She claims society is designed to hurt women.
Brian responds, “Men make up 93% of workplace deaths, 76% of suicides, and receive 63% longer prison sentences for the same crimes. Where’s the outrage?”

The feminist stumbles, grasping for emotional arguments.
Brian finishes:
“If you want equality, you need honesty. Not victim narratives. Facts don’t care about ideology.”

The room goes silent. Brian didn’t yell—he just used reason.
