    Lots of ‘excellent’ emails from the swampiest corners of the internet since I wrote the Incel article earlier this week. To the man who just told me he’d ‘rape [me] with a broom handle’, I hope you get the help you need. Happy weekend to everyone else.

        The first time I received rape threats was when I wrote about Russia and Putin. The first time I had pictures of me posted on forums was when I first wrote about MRAs. An unrepentant sex offender harassed me. They presumably thought they’d scare me to stop writing. It failed.

        BUT and this is the crucial point, my female colleagues have it so much worse and can never predict what will ‘trigger’ these nasty little Scrooge’s will swarm.

        Report and ignore. (Been my advice to people on the wrong end of trolls since the early days on the Imdb messageboards)

        Sensible. As a woman online.... I have an anon name and picture. And avoid talking about se. xual things, cos the trolls are all over that. Who can be bothered.
