Yes, that is how I feel.

But my analogies originally started because I had said I don't want to read Page 2-4 (max posts per page) because of how hurtful and ignorant people were being. I was trying to take something we all commonly accept as ignorant and rude (sexism) and compare it to the things people were saying about us CON who are unhappy. Such comments like "CON is meant to be healer from the start so suck it up." (False) and "Mages should always be managing MP and resting between Cures." (False, as proven by pre-1.18 XIV) etc etc much like saying women should always be in the kitchen is ridiculous and false and we all except that to be true (well, except the % of people who believe it).

And even further because the vast majority of these statements were coming from non-mages. There are some mages who like the changes, but they don't say "it's where we belong" (though they do say we suck as mages). Honestly, how does not liking the change make me suck as a mage? I just got to the final boss of Darkhold thank you very much. I can play mage very well. It's just an ignorant and offensive statement.

Ah so (at long last) that is all I was saying. Haha. Let us carry on!
