Emob78: That stuff about making Twitter safe for women makes me think of one word.
Patronize.
The definition...
verb (used with object), patronized, patronizing.
1. to give (a store, restaurant, hotel, etc.) one's regular patronage; trade with.
2. to behave in an offensively condescending manner toward:
a professor who patronizes his students.
3. to act as a patron toward (an artist, institution, etc.); support.
Believe me, there are some people who you'd rather have as an enemy than as a friend.
Pretty much. It's the most sexist thing I keep seeing, how areas need to be made SAFE for women. Which is funny, because I don't think I've ever met these terminally fragile women in my life, just people that weren't afraid to use a block button, who weren't afraid of walking away, who weren't scared of people on twitter who have no actual power against them.
It's an ego thing, that's the only thing I can actually think of, they aren't going it for women, they're doing it so they can say they did something special, because in reality, most of us aren't. Oh we all have our good points, but how many stand out people exist in the real world, or even online?
