attacking feminists speaking out on any woman issue, challenge "men space". we are experiencing the same here. it is interesting. this is what it is.

now, we do not get the rape and death threats. not allowed. but, they push the nastiness as far as they can and create it as a hostile environment as much as they can, for a site with minimal rules.

it is an interesting perspective. and makes us more aware of exactly how and why it is done. seeing it on a much smaller scale.
