Thanks for posting that link. A worthy read.

"One of the consequences is that men are extremely sensitive to being criticized by women. I think it threatens them in a very primal way, and male privilege makes them feel free to lash out."

I don't doubt this statement for a moment.

Since college, I've had three bosses/supervisors that were woman, and they stand out as paragons. My current supervisor stands to join their ranks. I can say for sure about one male boss. Most were inept fools, with little to no sense of leadership.

To react negatively to feedback from a woman is just... I don't even know. Stupidity beyond belief.

The best boss I've ever had is a woman. Thankfully, she's still my boss, and has been for 15 years. And yes, I'm talking about a boss at my job, not a wife or girlfriend.

Amen, bro. And lol @ my typo. THAT WERE WOMAN. Women. Women. Gah death to typos.

Some guy did that to Emmy, dancing around her and trying to position himself in awkward ways.

I marched right up and pointed at him repeatedly.

He got angry and left.

In 50,000 years, after society has collapsed and been rebuilt, there will be textbooks chronicling the decline and near-demise of humanity. A screencap of this post will appear about midway through the book as a succinct embodiment of everything that went wrong.

Anonymous men are Pigs absolutely.

Hearing my female gamer friends get harassed online is so disappointing. Each event was so unexpected that I remained like a deer in the headlights, not knowing what to do.

The best thing I can do is to be nice to my friend.

You can also call out sexist behavior in the community, both while playing the game and outside of the game. Being nice and supportive is also a great way to be a positive part of the community :-)

It happened a second time, with a different person. Just weirdly following me around…

Such a strange experience. It was a bit unnerving. Now I kinda know how it feels.

I was playing with a friend the other day, and no less than THREE times she had this happen to her during our session. She would laugh it off, but it did get pretty annoying how long these guys persisted...

There IS a report function built into Destiny, which is nice, and I've been wondering what exactly it does, and if behavior like this is worth reporting. Ultimately, it comes off as an annoyance more than anything; like a mosquito you can't quite get rid of... But who knows, maybe girls see it differently: Sammy just dances back and doesn't make a big deal about it...

I teleport down, I think, "Wow, this is pretty cool, hell of a view!", control is released to me, I see a dozen people running everywhere, I turn to the right, annnnnd watch a guy commit suicide, "Whelp. That just sucked all the wonder out of everything."

I don't have a problem with the Tower as a system. I do take issue with how huge it is. Ton of space, not much to do.

It's a similar story with the emotes. I don't have a problem with them, but it's awkward as hell to be looking at your inventory in Russia, all alone, and then pop out and find some random guy dancing in your face.

For whatever reason, this type of thing has only happened today, but in the tower some creepy awoken guy was following me around as I was redeeming bounties and engrams and stuff. He kept dancing on me. I figured I'd pick up the ghosts I missed and maybe he'd leave me alone.

Well, this guy kept following me for like 10 minutes. I figured I'd sit down to indicate I'm done /afk whatever, and what does he do? He walks up and positions himself so it's like he's getting a blowjob from me.

The tower sucks.
