I called you a woman? I don't think I insulted you or made a sexist remark...
3-4 feet is very different to 1-2 feet. Poor estimation on your behalf if you actually read it from 1-2 feet and not 3-4 feet. If it's not readable at 1-2 feet you may want to get your eyesight checked. I'm being genuine, here.
It's all good, though. You don't have to agree with me, but that doesn't mean I have to agree with you. But it is definitely worth considering a visit to your local optometrist if you are struggling to read reasonably sized text from a reasonable distance.
