You meant to say: "The point was me pointing out the ridiculousness of saying/boasting 'I am into extremely attractive women,' not necessarily the truthfulness behind it."
My response to that would be, "My point was, regardless of your dismissal of his point, his point is true because he does pursue hot women, they also reciprocate, and I am jelly."
View the conversation like this:
Joe: "I can squat 535lbs!"
Bob: "I don't care."
William: "It's true. I was at the gym when he did it. Went parallel, too. I'm jealous of that strength."
Bob: "I still don't care."
William: "Oh well. I still think it's awesome and I'm still jelly."
Edit - I have to take a massive shit.

You didn't mean to say that because if you did, then your response would all be negated with the way I worded my question because my question was, "What wasn't the point?"
Then if you respond with the actual point made, then that would end up being not the point because I asked you what was not the point because you said "That wasn't the point."
So, in order to avoid that problem, just reword you statement into one of two forms:
1. "This was the point..." which ignores the "not" portion of my question and your statement to avoid confusion from a literal contextual reading of your point clarification.
2. "This was not the point..." which acknowledges the not portion of your statement that I extended into my "not" question.

Cool story, bro.
