Of course there are male media personalities who are harassed, and (maybe?) female media personalities who aren't. The point is that no rational person could possibly claim that the frequency and severity is the same for writers/hosts/etc. of both genders.
- falcolas 10y agoI never claimed that the ratios are the same. I even pointed out in my op that they will be different for different groups. I'm claiming it doesn't matter - if you put yourself out there, you're opening yourself up to be attacked. And the only way to avoid that is to be anonymous, and let your opinions and arguments stand on their own merits. Anything else has been historically shown to fail. Blizzard's real name policy? Failed to stop the trolls. Community Guidelines? Trolls don't care. A sternly worded letter? Just lets the trolls revel in their success.
