And it's pretty much bang on the money.
We don't realise how good we have it today, with our universal right to vote, for people of colour and women to not be treated as possessions, but instead as equals, brothers and sisters.
I honestly cannot comprehend the current trend amongst our sub-culture to revile and threaten people asking for a fair chance in the world. For a global group supposedly accepting of all outsiders, as many of us are treated by our own workmates, classmates, or families, many of us are shockingly, disgustingly hostile to anyone who dare question the status quo of our world seeking the same acceptance and opportunities as we do amongst our fellow geeks.
Look in the mirror. Know that you are loved by many on this site. Now, if you aren't already, imagine you're female: imagine the sexism and attention you may not necessarily want. Imagine that you aren't your username and personality on here, but simply your body. Many don't care about your actual opinion, as long as you post a selfie.
And millions of women in the Third World face that struggle outside too, in the real world, where every leer, slur, denial is more immediate, intrusive, real.
Next time you, the chap, are about to type the word 'feminazi', just stop and think: she's just a woman who wants what you want for yourself. Is that a problem?
