- juridatenshi 13y agoYes, it's become so hard to be a man at tech conferences. They're so filled with hate for men that one could describe it as misandry. Did the feminazis also steal your ice cream?

- derleth 13y agoThis is the kind of idiocy that just brings everyone down. It would be a better world if we could all agree that this kind of nonsense was no longer acceptable.
- tomjen3 13y agoI remember a time were comments like this would be voted down or ignored.
- derleth 13y agoMinimizing the pain of others is never right. It is, in fact, one of the underlying problems here.
