That's not how that works, you can't prove a negative.

That's not proving a negative. You've said teenage girls have body image issues in every culture, so show me the data on body image issues in every culture. Or just admit you don't know if that's actually true.

If you are being intellectually honest with yourself and you can't think of one culture, maybe there's a problem

"Santa doesn't exist"

"oh yeah, show me every chimney in the world then or you're just a liar"

Women have more self-esteem issues in most societies throughout most of time.. hold on, let me get you a list of all of time. Do you know what pedantry means?

There is no other actual discussion, why would anyone discuss opinions you form by just going with what kinda feels right?

Anyhow, this point it's pretty clear I'm basically talking to an advanced parrot, you can say the words but there's no real human thought behind them. I'm not wasting more time on that.

It's so intellectually lazy, it's like saying "based off evidence we don't think Santa is true", but you want a camera in every chimney, Pedantry at its best.

That's proving a negative, i.e. the nonexistent of Santa. You made a positive claim that you can't prove.
