Feint vs Uncanny Dodge

[Guest]

Greetings,
So, if someone attempts to feint a rogue who has uncanny dodge,
can it work, or does uncanny dodge protect the rogue?

Uncanny Dodge only does what it says in the ability description: the
Rogue can lose you DEX bonus to AC by being feinted, Cowering,
Grappling.

[My golden rule for rules interpretation is to read nothing into a
rule that isn't stated explicitly, unless the results are
*unbelieveably* dumb. You can't use Sleight of Hand on a Galley (which
has no listed weight), for example, but you *can* have a flaming icy
sword].

I agree, just wanted to see the opinions of others. My DM seemed
to think that uncanny dodge protects against feints, I wanted some
support in my counter argument.

Feint works fine.
