A lot of the time i see stuff downvoted it’s because it’s more bait or someone’s weird rant turned into a question. It may not be a stupid question, but the asker doesn’t seem actually curious. They often come packed with weird assumptions, that have to be dealt with first, which would be cool if the asker was interested in being walked through it.

It’s the sincerity that’s missing! If someone asks why they have to wipe their asshole when everyone has a butler to hose them down after shitting, and it turns out they’re genuine and post a pic of their sad butler- oh. i thought of another reason why stuff gets downvoted. If it’s about bodily functions, I think people get grossed out and downvote. And there have been some that seemed like fetish material.

Lots of reasons, I guess? I think other than the bodily function one, the rest boil down to the perception of sincerity.
