Fundamentalist Atheists are just as annoying to me as any other fundie. I was with one from 2005-2010. I ended the relationship after he raped me twice. It was logical of course because I was kinkier than he was.

There are women in atheist circles, can't say it's an all dude club. There are ex Muslim atheist women as much as other women who left behind their other respective faiths.

I never said it was only dudes. As is pretty clear from the article, women are there - they just get treated like shit by an unacceptable number of atheist men.
