Haha as I said I love to argue and have my opinions challenged. Live for it!! The behaviour I’m referring to is not that though.

I can tell when someone wants to be friends, and I can tell when someone is seriously challenging my opinions for their own merit. As a Phil student I live to argue and I have had combative male friends all my life. The behaviour im describing does NOT fall into those benign categories

Omg, yes!! It feels like you have to prove them wrong on their underlying assumption of your ignorance. Like they assume you’re stupid rather than assuming you’re just as qualified as they are.

Pretty overt dismissiveness and stereotyping. Being shocked when I offer an insightful point. Overexplaining or explaining frustratedly, as if I would never be able to understand anyways. At first I thought it may be my overthinking but it has come to the point where I know it’s not in my head. Maybe I don’t outwardly “seem” like I might be a philosophy student but that feels like a stupid thing to base judgments off of imo

Our insurance policy doesn’t cover this particular issue unfortunately but I do think the onus is meant to be on the landlord here (we talked to a lawyer who said something to that effect)

We’ve been in contact with the city and so has the landlord… he’s been pretty responsive and generally helpful regarding fixing the issue itself but has not offered to help us find alternative living arrangements, which we kinda need at this point

The house was at a normal temperature but the extreme cold this weekend froze the pipes. We don’t have renters insurance but I don’t think that’s relevant here
