I was coming from the fact that your Medium article is titled very differently than the title of your link on HN. While I&#x27;ve not had the same experiences as you in terms of comment feedback (full disclosure: I&#x27;m a man), I would say that HN is a much more high-minded community than other popular destinations on the internet.<p>That doesn&#x27;t excuse any behavior obviously, but I&#x27;ve seen many instances of outright misogynistic comments and hateful no-content replies get downvoted consistently on HN.
