Not sure if this has been posted yet, but there's a video doing the rounds of a woman who didn't want kids changing her mind after being exposed to a baby. The government may want to consider this type of exposure in any final year sex ed/home economics programs in high school.
Basically the theory is that people (women) don't want kids because they aren't exposed to babies and young children in a childcare environment. They don't really have a trigger for their childbearing instincts. Not sure if the various European governments tried this in their studies.

I don't want to make a general statement about which sex is, on average, happier, at least, not without a lot more research, but I would at least say that there probably isn't a vast difference.
Yes, and for a lot of the intrinsic problems that men and women face, the coping mechanisms are discovered through hard learned experience. I think it's probably better to deal with 'the Devil you know..' then trade it in for perceived greener grass on the other side.
The transman I linked above for example. Most men have a gradual change from being a child, through teenage years, to being an adult man. They can slowly transition from being valued intrinsically as a child towards being more disposable as the years pass and develop emotional resilience to cope with that in a controlled manner. It must have been rough to go to sleep being valued and then wake up and realise suddenly no one cares about you at all expect perhaps for the value you can provide them (I'm exaggerating here to make a point, but guys will get what I mean).

Also, is there an equivalent magic button for women turning into men? Otherwise, the world might end up with a huge surplus of women, which changes the gender dynamics quite a bit.
I've talked to a couple of straight non-dysphoric women who said they would press such a button for some interesting reasons (although I don't know if they actually would). Some of these reasons are around avoiding periods and apex-fallacy misunderstandings of men and their lives. Even perceived male camaraderie compared to female consensus making and 'bitchiness'.
The whole thing is probably performative and a case of 'be careful what you wish for'.

Pretty sure a reasonable person would understand hitting someone with a sledgehammer would cause grievous injuries. Not happy the lawyer tried to sneak in weasel words like 'maliciousness' and 'degree of premeditation'. You don't need those things. Only intent. You can see the guy lift the hammer over his shoulder to lead up to the strike. This took seconds. I don't think he was confused or was flailing around blindly.

Considering liminal spaces and related media was a topic of discussion lately, I'd like to draw awareness to the upcoming release of a movie adaptation of one of the games I mentioned.
Exit 8 is about a man trapped in a subway that must follow a strict process to find his way out and back to the real world. It looks like they've copied the games aesthetic verbatim which is a good sign.
I hope we see more movies and games in the genre.
Lol, sorry. I really shouldn't drive-by post like that.
