I'm not saying that there are many people who are jerks to women (and jerks in general) in the community, but this example is just not really a good one, nor is this post really insightful. There are plenty posts like that.
- pmr_ 14y agoThe article wasn't even explain why the sentence-fragment was sexist. And I don't see how it was. Yes, meetings would be more attractive if there attendants were more evenly distributed across the spectrum of the human population. Otherwise some of the advice was really good for most kinds of confrontations.
- greenrd 14y agoThere was some good discussion about it on Reddit, and Twitter. I recommend checking out the reddit thread to better understand this point of view. However, even though reading this stuff made me think the blogger is probably right - it's a little off-putting that he doesn't seem to think his speech code should apply to him: https://mobile.twitter.com/eassumption/status/246636473800069120 https://mobile.twitter.com/eassumption/status/24663647380006... Makes you question the whole credibility of the radical feminist ethic, if they can't even follow their own rules. Or as I like to think of it after seeing that tweet, the "radical feminist reality distortion field".
- dsl 14y agoI came here to post the same comment. Very poor tutorial.
