OK, well, I'm glad the almighty have come down to smite the stupid questions away. Because, obviously, critical thinking can't be applied to something about sex differences. I mean, that would mean that all them tests which look at sex differences are stupid. (that was sarcastic)
Why on earth is it any stupider to ask a question about sex differences than to ask questions like, why do things always fall? Things like apples. That's a pretty dumb question too. Just because Titan's observation doesn't have a "Look, I found this article on some web-magazine or web-news saying that women fidget with their hair more than guys", doesn't mean that his observation is invalid, and it ESPECIALLY doesn't mean that wondering WHY that is the case is stupid. Just because it's not a hot-topic, and you think it's boring and irrelevant, doesn't mean that it can't be thought about. As if topics about the existence of a multi-verse and life after death are somehow better. We're not even equipped to talk about those topics with any certainty! But something where EVERYONE can actually think about it and put in a response, where we're all on the same grounds about a topic, that's a no-no. Just because a question isn't earth-shattering is a very, very VERY BAD way to moderate this forum. And to the person who decided to be smart-ass about writing a formula down, yeah, I got it, it was funny, but because I'm pissed off that the discussion was closed, behaviour has had equations put to it before, and will continue to do so, and one day, because someone put an equation to it, we'll have robots walking around flipping their hair just like girls! Perhaps if moderators were doing some critical thinking themselves they'd realize that a critical thinking topic isn't just something which sounds smart. |
