It's sexism and misogyny.

I abhor this woman but criticize her on her beliefs her actions etc not on what she wears or how her body looks.

Your comment made me and probably other women feel disgusted and disappointed.

Then you compounded it by pooh-poohing my feelings and doubling down on your speech.

I hope you do not claim to be a feminist.
