Being able to quote google searches does not make you a better person.

Because when you're upset about a person or his or her behaviour, you 
have to name that person and that is not an argument as to something 
philosophically correct or argumentatively wrong, that is about being 
angry with someone.

The argument is not "You argument is flawed because you are a woman" 
(for instance) which would be an ad hominem: it is using irrelevant 
personal detail to not accept the validity of an otherwise valid 
argument. That is an ad hominem.
