    Eh, i find the while ‘not on a public forum!!’ To be pretty fucking weaksauce as someone whose been visibly female on the internet since the 90’s. It rather smacks of rules for thee but not for me.

    I’ve never seen mofos produce such stenorious walls of pontificating text about anything but hurt male feelings

        It’s just very…something seeing a demographic that has traditionally had no real problems with broad swathes of denigration suddenly paint such behaviour the Worst Thing Ever and start using other people’s words to explain how it’s so very very wrong the instant it happens to them.

        It’s a kneejerk reaction, and so very useful for clouding the issue and abrogating recognition of unconscious bias, advantage and continuation of behaviour.

          Right, so surely you agree that painting with such a broad brush is bad in the general case? What makes it different here? Just that men have historically perpetrated it? Does that give us the right to treat them badly as a form of revenge or w/e?
