I'm saying that it's not so much "generalization" as "addressing a specific
audience." It's not saying "every nice guy was blown off by every woman,
and every woman is now looking for a nice guy." He's saying "if you're
looking for a nice guy, and he used to be around, and you blew him off, it's
your fault he's not around any more."

Yes, and that works where there's back-and-forth. But when there isn't, the
appropriate way to look at it is to consider the case presented and discuss
the merits, not consider all the cases not presented and point out that the
one presented isn't universal.
It's a story, not a scientific analysis.
