Posting the same thing with a female username name has gotten me more down votes than a male username.

And people ask why there are comparatively fewer women on Lemmy.

Yep! In !WomensStuff@lazysoci.al we get regular downvotes for innocuous stuff

Yeah, it's funny. Like the thread that's basically "rape is wrong" gets downvotes. 🤣
