    Excellent write up. I think there are different kinds of pain and we’d need to measure to account for that.

    When I’m at the BDSM club the women generally want and can take more pain. (Some guys are totally insane though.)

    When I’m in my gravel biking group it’s very much the opposite. The dudes will slide down 20 ft of gravel and their legs look like someone took a cheese grater to them. They have a laugh, hop back on the bike, and finish the ride with blood in their shoes. The ladies generally take a little spill and loose a little skin and they are crying and want help walking their bike back to the car. (Some chicks are hard as nails though.)

    Nah. We need legal protection to separate content creators and distributiors. Creator’s license content. Laws could mandate all distributors get access to the same pricing. Then you pick the distribution platform you enjoy.

    Creator’s compete for views with quality content.

    Distributors compete for users with features and curation.

    No exclusive rights. No studio running a streaming platform. No streaming platform starting up studios. None of this anticompetitive lock-in.

    What part of the world does this idea come from? Men in general definitely don’t complain about pain more than any other gender in my region. I have noticed a gender difference between taking a nap, walking it off, and taking drugs. I could probably generalize a bit about who prefers rest, who prefers to grin and bare it, and who prefers to try to medicate it.
