I bet you there are plenty that are, but either way, if it were a woman this story was about, she would 100% be framed as a "crazy" cat lady, but it's a man, so it's the situation that is "crazy", not him..

That was a joke. I think you are looking for something that's not there.

I understand that you were making a joke, and I went off it to make a serious point about the framing of the story. I'm not the one "looking for something that isn't there".

You're seriously claiming toxoplasmosis gondii is a gendered issue? We need some kind of lemmy award for most bizarre takes.

No, I'm really not, but good luck working on your reading comprehension. 👍

Yeah, you really are. Good luck learning what crazy cat person syndrome is as you continue to spout off about it. 👍
