    Ain’t just gaming. I dropped a note on a home tech forum while being visibly female and very rapidly realised i’d forgotten how fucking neckbeardy rank amateurs are

    I’ve been a network/systems engineer for 25 years, my fellow pros would never be so gauche.

    Except dev.

      It’s weird with devs. Most of us are fine but there’s definitely a sizable number of “tech bros” that absolutely are misogynistic. And it’s probably worse than I realize not being the target of it.

    misogyny is a skill issue

    Always has been, weak men can’t stand women outpacing them, this is not limited to gaming but basically anything and everything.
