(Anonymous) 2015-05-02 02:55 am (UTC)(link)Where are you that you're surrounded by people who actually understand probability and were taught about it in grade school?
"Or they could not jump to the conclusion that someone lacks basic math skills because they mention using real-life demographics and statistics as a reference point for fictional demographics."
Except the assumption didn't come from that. It came from you stating that 3 out of the 14 female characters should be rape victims, which is a literal reading of "1 in 5." There is no "should" about it, and it's not under-representation or statistically invalid to have only one of them be a victim.
"Pffft. If only you knew the truth."
Oh, give me a break. You're one of the most arrogant, needlessly antagonistic people here. You've admitted in the past to having a problem keeping your ego in check and not being a douche.

Admittedly I'm in an area that has a higher than average level of educational attainment. Still, even the worst schools have probably taught probability before a student reaches high school. It's not like basic probability is a difficult concept.

No, it's not statistically invalid, but it is an under-representation versus the average.

But you're wrong about "your ego is too fragile to take being corrected yourself." I love being caught out as wrong and corrected (or even better, viciously called out, like the SJWs do). I love being insulted and mocked. It works as a positive reinforcement for me and actually makes it harder to break bad behavior.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-02 03:14 am (UTC)(link)So you're some sort of...argument masochist?
no subject
Yeah, I don't know if there's a better term for it. I think it might be why I slip into douchebaggery so easily; I subconsiously crave being put down.
