@marcan42 all I've seen are a few people saying "hey, maybe ultra-masculinity is part of the problem here?" and trolls attacking them

@FioraAeterna Also, Twitter is a fucking *terrible* medium for discussing any of this. Its brevity incites extreme sweeping statements.

@marcan42 she linked to a long, detailed article explaining things for exactly that reason. I'm guessing you didn't read it

@FioraAeterna Nope, only the link-less tweet made it to my timeline. Case in point for why Twitter sucks for this.

@marcan42 ah, that sucks :/ I hate it when that happens to me (get retweeted without context, people complain about lack of context...)

@FioraAeterna FWIW, having read the article, I think it's reasonable (but not very scientific). I disagree with some of it. Which is OK.

@FioraAeterna OTOH, the way it was condensed into multiple disconnected tweets was, IMO, inflammatory.

@marcan42 I highly doubt there was any /intent/ to be inflammatory by someone who's constantly harassed and sent death threats
