"You've made a correct observation, now please provide an argument why the social construct of x should not be adhered to. X is dumb and I don't wanna is not sufficient."

I think something being dumb is a perfectly valid reason to not do the thing.

"it's just dumb" is as valid of an argument as "it just makes sense". You need a thesis along the lines of "X happens because Y".

That's just dumb.

It's dumb to shoot yourself in the foot or jump off a cliff.

Don't do dumb things.

You're not wrong, it is terrifying to remember that half of the worlds population is dumber than the average person
