Did you actually read the article? It says that two-thirds of the victims in Britain are men while, globally, most are women. It's not about women in the UK.

- dang 9y agoWould you please read the site guidelines and follow them when commenting here? Please don't insinuate that someone hasn't read an article. "Did you even read the article? It mentions that" can be shortened to "The article mentions that." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- Strom 9y agoI find it amusing that you didn't shorten this to "The site guidelines mention that". If I would have written Would you please read the article instead of asking if they had read it, would that be ok, or do you reserve that right to yourself only? I will try to refrain from asking people if they have read anything. I've read the guidelines several times before, but this specific prohibition just slipped my mind. Your comment does feel effectively the same though.
- dang 9y agoYes, moderation comments suck—to write as well as to read. If the community ever gets to the point of not needing them, it will be a dream come true.
