roachpatrol: the-real-seebs: kayinnasaki: Cyber harassment study reveals the unsurprising! It still amazes me that I talk to guys who still think they get harassed just as much as women online.

You see a woman get harassed on a game and you go “Oh well I’ve been harassed” without understanding that there is seldom a session for her where that doesn’t happen or understanding what her inbox might look like… That is a sort of stunning degree of difference. “The data’s in! Women were lying about online harassment!” "Aha! We knew it!" “Yeah, they’ve been severely underreporting how bad things are for them, turns out.” "Wait, what?” -- source link
