    But you did say “my wife thinks my comments have a mix of racism and misogyny, which is still maybe true.” How does that paint a good picture in any way?

    But I stand corrected and I admit I had a knee-jerk reaction.

      I wasn’t trying to paint a good picture, I was being honest.

        Then be honest with yourself for once.

        You say:

        I don’t believe this to be the case,

        How do you reconcile that with “maybe I’m being racist and misogynistic”?

          I am being honest with myself: I may have internalized biases that I’m not consciously aware of. There’s nothing to reconcile here as these two statements are not mutually exclusive or even contradictory in any way.
