Is There Anything Good About Men? [Roy F. Baumeister]

• mirimir 10y ago
  If there were nothing good about men, they wouldn't exist. Edit: There are vertebrate species with no males. Some have males only when conditions are suitably favorable. Given that there are men, there must be selection pressure. Edit: I wonder why this submission was flagged? Too contentious?

    > Edit: I wonder why this submission was flagged? Too contentious? That, as well as the clickbait title, plus it's missing a (2007) tag. When it was submitted back in '07 the article received several hundred points and a lively discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=589346 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=589346 I was hoping there would be interesting discussion today but this time users are willing to flag it and move on, no time to leave a comment.

      Thanks. I didn't notice either. I just lucked out, catching it in time to comment ;)
