In the course of this conversation, I am the only one who has been attacked. If you can tell me a way I can interpret that comment that is not insulting, I'd be happy to hear it.
I have been quite civil, I have presented two sources and could procure more, but I am done with this thread. I know that my opinions on such things are unpopular here, and I do not expect to be lauded or reach consensus.

If you want to think that's what this is, that I'm a lone woman with a chip on my shoulder, if that makes you feel better, then please disregard the sources I posted earlier.
- Dellort 17y agoI can't see how you've been attacked, unless you're a feminist. I don't know if it's insulting in general or insulting to you. It wouldn't be insulting to you if it wasn't insulting to you. That last part is a straw man because you did not provide evidence for your claim that "HN, and the wider hacker culture, is often unwelcoming to women" at the time you made that claim. Also you should clarify if you mean "all women", "some women" or "one woman" by "women". In any case I strongly suspect you have not closely examined my name.
