Like, why is it so widespread, what causes it, what solutions are available, etc. I don’t really know how to ask this question so I hope I’m making sense

    What’s the deal with poorly explained questions?

    Why don’t they provide more context for their perspective? Do they think people will magically know what they mean without them explaining it?

      I think that’s part of the fun of an “ask people” forum, the answers reveal the common understanding of the definition of the question itself!

      For example, In this question the term “male loneliness” is seemingly semantically meaningful. It seems to be a name given to the popular perception or understanding of a certain phenomenon.

        Part of the fun of a forum is interacting with people as well, which OP didn’t do. Just shit in the forum and fucked off.
