Re: Interesting article about Sexism in Geek Communities I'm not sure males get to announce that things are getting better; it's not like w ever experienced them as being worse. I've being to going cons or various sorts for more than 20 years and I've never seen any harassment to speak of, but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. These days I keep weather eye out for it, but again it's not likely to happen when I'm looking.

Re: Interesting article about Sexism in Geek Communities Not even sure what to say. Men are creeps. Beginning to think we should bifurcate the country give one half to each gender and permit no one to cross the border. There may be benefits to women of having men around, but they do not outweigh the drawbacks Given that reproductive technology means procreation no longer requires physical contact, this is not a barrier to sustainablity. Child contracts arranged by matching services, payment to women who agree to have sons to ship back across the border. I could be worked out. Women would not have to put up with male creeps, and men would no longer have the chance to be creeps to women. With modern technology we could even go back and modify literature and movies and such so that children growing up in either state would never even be made aware of the other gender until after high school.

Re: Interesting article about Sexism in Geek Communities Not sick of the thread, just sick of the abuse heaped on women. I'm not fond of abuse heaped on men, children,or animals, either, but the fact that the portion of humanity that feel it is socially acceptable or even virtuous to engage in that sort of behavior toward women in particular is infuriating.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life. I have a coworker who is literally a blabbermouth. She never stops talking, even to chew her food and eveything she says at the top of her lungs. Worse nothing she has to say is actually useful or interesting. No one in the department can stand being around her for any period of time. Me: You know that's irritating. Her: What's irritating? Me: The fact that you never stop talking. Her: What do you mean. I'm a quiet person. Me: Being stuck in a room with you is like having my ears stuffed with rabid weasels.
