What I think unknownsailor was getting at there is that this is a weird little linguistic quirk, with people using 'feel' for 'think' more often in women’s circles, leftist circles, academia, the media and so on. 'Think' is the more masculine one.

I'm not going to have a go at you about it, or deny that if you're going to tie it to a 'gut feeling' then 'feel' might be the right one to use on occasion, but there's a trend y'all, of clap certain clap language being used amongst certain folks, and 'feel' for 'think' is one of the smaller sneakier ones that aren't as obvious as 'y'all' or 'folks'.

The old red pill/game blogs used to flag this sort of thing. And it does make sense when you see who uses each word more often, and the additional connotations of each word.
