Are we supposed to conclude that men never feel isolated, alone, or struggle to mentor others? She describes very common feelings and struggles related to working in a corporate environment, and then blames them on her gender.

This made leaving tech her only option, since she can't change who she is. Had she been a little less quick to assign sexism to fairly common struggles, perhaps she could have explored ways to effectively address those feelings.

Didn't you read the article? She addresses exactly the point that men feel isolated, alone, and struggle to mentor others in paragraph 7. She also addresses your idea that she "blames [it] on her gender." Please respond to the article under discussion rather than a similar, but different, article.

Yes, which of course she attributes to men's problems with needing attention from women who understand them.

Maybe we should first examine if there is a victim there in the first place?

Instead of, you know, taking their word for granted (something not even their own lawyer would do), and spouting silly unwaranted "rape" metaphors against anyone arguing?

This isn't a legal case. When articles are posted by men, people normally take their word for granted. But you're right, the analogy was probably a bit much.

>When articles are posted by men, people normally take their word for granted.

Do they? If anything, most articles on HN are met with a "why was this posted", "this is BS", "not worth our time", "You call that a project, I could code this in a weekend", "you don't know shit about monads" etc attitude.

I haven't seen any shortage of people NOT taking what male posters write for granted on HN.
