Nope, because male developers do the exact opposite of draw attention to it.

Oh ok, so you have no proof of what is happening with guys and are just going to make up what you think is happening?


Again, you cant just waive all this shite off and say that these people never do anything b/c you just don't know when a crazy person is actually going to do it.

and holy crap saying they should just shut up about it if they want it to stop. That is just plain dumb and nothing more than blaming the victim.

"Sorry daughter of mine. You need to toughen up and shut the hell up about people posting pictures of where you live, threatening to kill you, threatening to rape you, and all the other harassment you are getting. It's your fault the harassment is getting worse by telling people about it."


I'm sorry man but that is a ridiculous stance to have.

The people doing this crap need to be outted and need to be punished. Its not ok for them to be doing it, its not ok to waive it off like its no big deal and just some internet lulz, and its not ok to blame people getting harassed even more b/c they have the gall to mention some frick threatened to kill/rape them.

Ignoring a problem does not fix a problem. This shite is a problem.
