If at Harvard, the first and single assignment you submitted for peer review in a class didn't go over well, did you walk up to the professor and classmates and accuse them of sexism? Because that is what you're doing now.
Secondly, the writer, editor, and most-quoted person in the article are all women. Their article contains text that says that 20 year old males have lots of happiness to look forward to--the prime audience of this site. Therefore, I doubt the story was voted up because of what you perceive is a negative write up about women; more likely it was because the submission title mentioned that men get happier as they age.
I've also seen inappropriate comments. If there is a comment you disagree with, you should reply to them specifically.
- dgabriel 18y agoI should not have mentioned my submission. I've been around for a while. I've submitted dozens of things to reddit over the past couple of years, and only one of them got more than 5 upvotes. I know how this stuff works, and it's certainly not meant to be a whine about how people don't upmod my stuff. My problem is also not with the article, which doesn't go into causes, merely states their findings. Until I stepped in, all the comments were about how women are probably unhappy because they stop being pretty, and men are happy because they start being rich, and can finally have sex with younger women. These are gross stereotypes, and should be offensive to everyone. Instead, they're accepted as common sense. If you want evidence, feel free to scroll around.
