We used this company to bootstrap software startups. One looks more promising than this company, and splitting our efforts up seems unwise. Also, we need to travel for the software startup, and this isn't exactly a remote job. It'

Hostels take people over shorter periods, like weekends. Dorms have people for 3-6 months so they can complete an internship. Hostels are fairly transactional. Dorms involve community responsibilities, including from the residents. This is

Can't we use peer-reviewed studies instead of entertainment? I really feel like you're not doing your position justice...

I'd rather see it cited in a peer-reviewed study.

I have no evidence it is more sexist than anywhere else. I only said it was a problem and that it needs solving.

Your numbers seem to be of police-recorded offenses. Many studies show that only a very small number of rapes are reported. I cited a study where 4% of men self-identified as rapists for scientific study. Half of those men were repeat offen

Your faith that the legal system reduces drama and solves problems is probably the reason my behavior doesn't make a lot of sense to you. You didn't begin interacting with the technology industry before you were an adult? No summe

I'm proud to have the audience working with me at the end. That's what a good speaker does. That doesn't mean they were with me in the beginning. Most of them probably didn't know me before I went up on stage. I can prob

What happened to me happened years ago. I wasn't ready to talk about it then. Now I am. The window for prosecution has closed, so it is not possible to take it to court anymore. Big events like this take years to heal from. I don'

Your argument is that writing an article doesn't stop rape. I find it true that writing an article won't fix my rape seeing as writing an article is not magic a time machine. However, I find it hard to believe that writing an arti

What evidence do you have that the tech industry is less sexist than other places? Are you arguing that women like working with sexist people through your finance experience? Are you arguing that women who talk about rape don't have th

Yeah I didn't view his actions towards me as rape either. Just really dickish.

Because it isn't possible for that to be true?

It's taken me years to be able to talk about it. The window for prosecution closed a long time ago. I feel like the three recommendations still stand on their own even if you believe nothing of what I said.

I want to do something more with my life than make sure some asshole gets what they deserve. I want my life to be about more than that.

Yeah I don't generally talk about this because it brings conversations to a screaming halt, and you have to spend all your time comforting whoever you just told.

Well, I don't know how to reach your empathy, but we do need your help creating safe spaces, educating folks in a non-destructive way, and getting people to talk about these issues until the truth and solutions are found.

Thanks. I try. I think a lot of women are afraid of being taken as 'emotional' or 'overreacting' in the workplace so we start practicing young.

Why is this the most important philosophical discussion to have right now? I just explained how terrible things can be, a thing I called rape only one of a large number of issues. Why is "was she technically correct in saying rape&quot

Of every claim you have heard, this is the one you think isn't real?

Your eagerness to help is very good, and I think expressing that you care about these issues to your employees is great, but unless you tattoo it on your forehead, most employees won't know about your personal stances. Your personal st

I don't work at Medium. I'm taking some time between work right now. I don't think I could have written this if I had a job with a conventional employer. No matter how great my employer is, if the post got popular, it would b

Nah, it was nothing like that. I fleshed out the paragraph a little. -- Listening to him quote the sexual harassment seminars was the saddest bit: on one hand he was really trying, but on the other, everything he was quoting made absolutely
