Why should I, as a man, applaud sentiments such as "If there are no men, nobody can get harassed by men"? Replace the word men with any other group and tell me if you think that sounds acceptable. The Geek Feminism list of incidents[0] she links to is a joke, which is very much representative of the movement in its current form. Some examples of the horrors women go through in the tech industry:
-Lena Söderberg's photograph is first used in image processing experiments.
-CeBIT booth babes (Technology industry)
-Julian Assange arrest (for Sexual assault)
-libuv gendered pronouns patch dispute
-Sqoot posts a blog article that includes a photo of a topless woman
