It actually does happen to a lot of people. The reason is not &quot;because they&#x27;re good at their job&quot;, its usually because they are people who are in the public eye and are seen as leaders. Some people have a problem with women being leaders and so decide to harass them. Yes, people like that do exist. Jessie is a really awesome hacker and it makes me sad that she left her awesome job (allegedly) because she didn&#x27;t feel comfortable. I (presumably like you) don&#x27;t like diversity quotas and all that other bullshit, but denying that people like Jessie are harassed for no reason other than &quot;being a public figure&quot; doesn&#x27;t help your case.
