Just so you know, and as a reflection on the basic nature of the thing, "solipsism" contains no "why". Nor any "y", anyway. True solipsists always know why.
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin solus alone + ipse self
Date: 1874
: a theory holding that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing
(Merriam-Webster on-line dictionary)
