Squid made an observation about the differences of the beaches in America and France. You called him a prude (which is fine) but then brought up abortions. It's a trend I have been seeing on this site lately (last time the topic was "if cars are too loud these days"):

I think you are wrong about [insert random topic]. Why are you so anti-choice?

I didn't call him a prude, I called Americans prudes. Because they are. And the things I listed are some of the reasons why Americans are prudes.

The trend is that Americans can't stand that they're wrong and will steer the conversation into an abyss trying to win the argument.
