Interesting summary and a good read.
I would like to know the author's opinion on whether or not women could be more censorious of harmful discrimination due to experiencing more of it in their lives first-hand than men do.
And similarly, whether it could be significant that some of the materials mentioned (studies and books) present conclusions in favor of men.
I didn't see these potential causalities explored though others were.

That was my first thought, too. It would be interesting to see similar studies done with regard to race, gender identity, etc.
- NylaTheWolf 5y agoThose are my exact thoughts as well. I guess it was supposed to be more of an overview of the findings, but it's a shame that we didn't get a more in-depth summary about the findings and get more context about the content that they showed.
- raxxorrax 5y agoYou are looking for excuses. Minorities rarely champion more censorship since they would never be able to implement it obviously. > Although support for censorship is often associated with authoritarianism, it likely is motivated—at least in part—by desires to protect others from harm. Funnily in English the word for that is called paternalism. I language curiosity in my opinion. But the motivation does not change the fact that it is authoritarian. But the fact remains that you justify a bad opinion with past oppression. That certainly will help nobody and is probably not connected at all.
