  • Well, men are also most of the victims of serious crime and do most of all dangerous jobs. These are all consequences of taking more risks.

    Men commit almost all rape and murder, but no one seems to think this is a problem we need to do anything about.

    Really? No one?

    But we know exactly what to do about it when we’re talking about other species. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that putting men on testosterone-blockers is going to make them less dangerous.

    It doesn’t take a genius to realize that, it takes a fool, because it’s not necessarily true. It may make them less aggressive, but what else would happen? You’re giving an easy answer to an extremely hard problem.

    YES, there are many people thinking about this. What about we make society less toxic first, for example? But I commend you for posting an actual unpopular opinion.



  • Posting for the sake of posting, this decreases the quality of posts significantly. Let’s say there’s a new meme trending, what would happen on Reddit (and other social media) is subs would be filled with uninteresting slight variations of the same meme. I’m not against memes, but we also should pay attention to whether what we are posting is minimally interesting, useful or meaningful. Lemmy does not have a “recommended”, “trending” or “hot” feed, so this should help significantly in this regard.
