I am new in nostr and still learning but I get what you're saying, however what I have seen these first days on here is that likes don’t work the same way as on traditional platforms. There’s no algorithm boosting engagement or monetization tied to them, so their impact may be different. If someone values them (I was using them so far), it’s probably more about quick interaction than seeking validation, but again, I am new and still learning, just trying to add a beginer pov.
Fair enough, it’s not just about one experience but the patterns you see around you. Still, I think there’s always more to the picture than what we hear in certain circles. Either way, enjoy the forest with your kid! Sounds like a great way to disconnect. 😄
GOOD MORNING NOSTR.

GM ☕
You're right that whatever a society consistently rewards, it gets more of. If we prioritize short-term gratification over long-term thinking, we shouldn’t be surprised when critical thinking declines.
But the bell curve works both ways, while some chase the immediate, others are building, questioning, and opting out of the noise. The real challenge isn’t just observing the trend, but deciding which side of it we contribute to."
I get your skepticism, some studies are definitely flawed or biased, and blindly trusting them isn’t the way to go. But just like in Bitcoin, where we verify instead of trusting, we can apply the same principle to understanding human behavior.
Relying only on personal experience is limiting because our own circles and interactions don’t represent the full picture. Generalizations might seem to apply in 'most cases,' but that depends on where and how you're looking. Just like in Bitcoin, the key is digging deeper, questioning sources, and being open to perspectives beyond our own.
I see where you're coming from, but the idea that women are naturally drawn to bad behavior isn’t as universal as it seems.
Studies suggest that while some women may be attracted to dominant traits in certain situations, long-term relationship preferences overwhelmingly favor respect, trustworthiness, and emotional security (ResearchGate -https://www.researchgate.net/publication/225190811_Young_Women%27s_Dating_Behavior_WhyWhy_Not_Date_a_Nice_Guy).
Another study found that over 70% of women aged 18-35 prioritize finding a partner who respects them for their choices (Economic Times- https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/respect-independence-loyalty-set-the-tone-in-relationships-for-new-age-couples/articleshow/66475528.cms?utm_source=chatgpt.com&from=mdr).
If disrespectful behavior gets rewarded, maybe it’s more about who someone is choosing to attract rather than all women being wired that way?
I get what you're saying (there's often a gap between how things should work and how they actually play out). But does that mean the best response is to lean into the incentives, or to rethink the system that creates them?
Accountability should apply to everyone, regardless of gender. Violence and abuse (whether physical, emotional, or psychological) are unacceptable no matter who commits them. If a woman harms someone, she should face the same consequences as a man would in a similar situation. That said, the legal system is not always consistent, and biases exist in different directions depending on the context.
As for relationships, no one deserves to be stuck in an unhealthy or toxic situation. While personal responsibility is important, it’s also valid to acknowledge when someone else’s actions are harmful. Choosing to stay in a bad situation doesn’t make the harm okay; it just means the person has a difficult decision to make. Ideally, people should empower themselves to leave toxic environments, but that doesn’t excuse the person causing the harm either.
At the end of the day, relationships and personal happiness are complex, and a balanced perspective is key.
☕ GM, Nostr! Sitting here with my coffee, watching the world wake up, and diving deeper into Bitcoin, decentralization, and Nostr. No gatekeepers, no middlemen—just freedom and sovereignty.
