Is mayonnaise a gender?

So I will be defending mayo as a gender. Okay. Mayonnaise is a gender. Why? Because there is no proof that it is not. According to the Solipsism theory (that most Psychologist will agree with) "there is nothing that we can prove besides our own conciseness". If that is the case, and you can't prove it is not, then external stimuli aren't valid as a scale to judge things by. Meaning that ideas (including gender) aren't anything further than my imagination. If I can imagine mayonnaise as a gender, there is nothing to prove me wrong.

But OGBC, Solipsism is retarded.

No Patrick, mayonaise is not a gender, it's a side of food.

Half the reason I don't like getting angry with people is because I'm aware their words don't reflect everything they experience about an exchange. My interpretation of the exchange could be false because I can misinterpret their words or the significance behind them. I'm aware that in a relevant societal frame other people exist and they have islands of consciousness just like I do, and I can in fact be incorrect because I'm not omniscient.

What I mean to say is that certain Solipsist-inspired sentiments can be applicable in social situations if a sense of responsibility is held and an assumption is made that for all intents and purposes, other things exist. Since that directly defies Solipsism, it's more so a personal observation and extension of philosophy on perspective.

Is Solipsism valid in a non-societal context?

What about self-identifying as an Apache Attack Helicopter?

Not really serious material is it?
