You mean that feminism is over? It won? Women are equals in all things and all places? Holy crap! This is big news! Start the presses! Spin up the blog engines! Feed the buzz!

Oh, wait, yeah, there still is one, and no, feminism isn't over. Damn. So close...

I already have one, thanks.

Good attempt at derailment and belittlement. Next, let's solve black-on-black crime first, and ensure that the common cold is cured before AIDS.

No, respect should be a default that you can lose by acting like an asshole.

Yes, because those are equivalent.

My comprehensions skills are better than your ad hominem skills, apparently. If you want to be understood, perhaps you should communicate more clearly.

You're right. You personally don't need an entire system of oppression to feel uncomfortable, but you would need that system of oppression to be (not just feel, but actually be) helpless in the face of that feeling. Your singular anxiety does not create a system of oppression against you. My anxiety does not make the people who make me feel anxious into bad people.

If harassment is defined by the system of oppression, and the current system of oppression is patriarchal consisting of toxic masculinity, then what I said is not a lie.

If you did even cursory research, you'd know it's not an isolated incident.

I could swear there was an episode of Babylon 5 with a Nazi scientist. Some favors come with too high a price.

Since you need power structures in order for harassment to carry any weight/threat, yes, a disproportionate amount of harassment is men against women.

Don't fall into the common techie trope of expecting everyone else to explain everything to you by spouting a pathetically-informed opinion.

They said "no sociopaths". Marketing is practicing psychology without a license.

Do you want a job doing development work? Github is your new resume! Do free work to gain the possibility of doing paid work!

People are turned away. Anyone saying that "code is the only thing that matters" is completely wrong. If that were the case, why do we have conferences? Why do we have communities?

Because in a generally-male community, which open source is, as TFA reports, it is assumed that, unless otherwise stated, your gender is male. If you do not correct that assumption, you are seen as being disingenuous. If you do correct that assumption, you can be seen as trying to curry favor with your minority status. There is no winning.
