There is no such thing as a default LW user either, as far as I'm aware. "Statistically predominant" is not the same concept as "default". We can decide whether or not to treat a certain behavior or property or whatever (if any) as the default in a particular context. We can't in general decide which behavior/property/whatever is the statistically predominant one.

Obvious notion that shouldn't be obvious: Getting what you want.

This is what was answered-- it's about what people in general want, it's not about what the typical LW reader might want.

Now that I think about it, the idea that women should have ambitions outside their families is pretty new so far as I know. So is the idea that everyone should aim for being extraordinary.

My thanks to everyone who voted Lumifer's comments up-- I wasn't will to take a karma penalty to reply.
