Why women in tech are so angry all the time
Every comment so far has been downvoted, I have some internet points to spend.<p>&gt; My first thought was someone had mailed me anthrax.<p>That&#x27;s your first thought? The harassment later described sounds insane - if you are receiving death threats call the police, open a case. It&#x27;ll strengthen your position if you later need to go to court. What you don&#x27;t do is post about it online, to let your attacker know they were successful.<p>Also, don&#x27;t doxx your own address. If you need to receive mail and post an address online, there are forwarding services - some even offer to search the mail.<p>I somewhat find the claim incredible though - if you honestly believe you are in immediate danger, most people do something about it.<p>&gt; Most of us, however, experience constant microaggressions.<p>The term &#x27;microaggression&#x27; doesn&#x27;t make sense to me, if it&#x27;s aggression then call it out as such. If it&#x27;s not meaningful enough to be called out, then you need a better coping mechanism.<p>&gt; [..] it truly feels like the cancerous misogynistic tumors in our industry in particular run so deep that we may never be able to bisect them all.<p>Either Silicon Valley produces the worst work culture out there (and homelessness), or I would suggest that you find yourself in a bubble. I think as a general rule, if you believe &lt;some group&gt; to have almost entirely evil intent, then you don&#x27;t understand them or have some internal bias. People generally don&#x27;t try or believe themselves to be the villains of their own stories.<p>&gt; Listen to and believe women.<p>You go from wanting equality to special treatment. I treat all people with scepticism, but they are innocent until proven guilty. That&#x27;s how justice works.<p>In general I feel sad for the author. Anything you try hard enough to find, you will eventually find. I hope instead of trying to find sexism in tech industry, the author tries to find happiness.
