I hereby move that all further article submissions focused on gender roles or "sexism" be banned from HN. They aren't intellectually interesting, they aren't productive, they tend to bring out the worst in terms of quality of discussion. Yes, I know some of you may disagree with me, but that does not make me evil or less enlightened than you are, so spare me the downvotes. For those of you that do agree with me, I recommend we all start flagging any such articles we do see. Since we're not allowed to downvote articles directly. Sound good? Let's act.
- wpietri 15y agoWow. Disagreeing doesn't make you evil. Trying form a cabal to keep people from talking about and fixing an inequity that favors you sure does, though.
- rayiner 15y agoOn the contrary, I've found the discussion on this thread to be extremely insightful.
- natep 15y agoWe shouldn't stop following the guidelines just because you don't like the subject. This was clearly a social hack.
