Interesting psychological experiment. You should repeat the trial on different forums, and multiple times on the same forum in different places and see if the results are always the same. X3
I almost wonder if you were doing this on reddit. Being a female redditor myself, I've noticed a lot of times I get thumbed down or attacked, or *my favorite* called a karma whore for posting something that gets a lot of upvotes or gets near the front page. Well what am I supposed to do, post content I know nobody will want to see to keep my karma purity?
But I think that can be taken down to maturity in a lot of cases. A lot of people on the internet (again especially reddit) who are likely to be the ones commenting and voting and doing these things are probably young teenagers, trying to be cool. So they take all the trolly kind of humor and attitude and actually apply it to their mindset, taking it more seriously than it's meant to be.
Is it normal men don't laugh at women's jokes?

That's my partial theory, anyway.
