Rereading the title sent me.

You can't just make up new definitions for established words.
What a weird thing to say.
MGTOW is an anti-feminist movement, which means it's based in the idea that women shouldn't be equal to men.
This movement is based in the idea that women should be equal to men. So it's different.
It's hard to find the balance between letting the joke breathe versus making it too obvious. I'm not sure I hit that balance this time, but it seemed less funny any other way I could think to say it.
A self fulfilling prophecy, in a way.
That's true.
With a T9 phone, I used to be able to send a complete text message without ever taking my eyes off the road.
Now that I've got a touchscreen I'm swerving all over the place every time I try to text. It's way less safe.
Still the first scientific report, alphabetically.
To many of them!

Or just stop after the first sentence.
Have you tried saying, "Please don't ask me that anymore"?
That will address the exact problem without being rude, without offending him, and without opening it up for more questions. You don't owe him an explanation, so don't leave an opening for one. Just say: "Please don't ask me that anymore."
If he asks why, you say, "Doesn't matter. Please don't ask me that anymore."
If he offers an explanation for why he's asking you that, you say, "Ok. Please don't ask me that anymore."
Neat and easy. No unintended consequences.
I don't see how any of that applies to what I said.
If you want to focus on the worst proponents of these ideologies, please let's take a closer look at MGTOW and see if it's a reaction to misandry or if it's just straight-up misogyny. Because I promise you it's straight-up misogyny.
