The song "needs" to be gender specific?
Are you implying Gordon isn't talking about a woman??!

I think it's pretty safe to say he is and yes it is a chauvanistic thing (whether you are a man or a woman) to imply that you'll overcome a break-up better than they will.
Not to mention telling that person,"I've got a 100 more like you".
Or..."Everything you had is gone,as you can see" ...
and,"Someday when your poor heart is on the mend,I just might pass this way again".
In other words,I'll continue to make you miserable?! It's usually guys that do things like that,women do to,but it's usually the male.
These are pretty pathetic things for anyone to say to another,after sharing a close relationship.
Talk about doing anything to feel superior!
