Twitter- optimised for abuse

I'm genuinely interested to hear you say that, why do you cringe? Because it doesn't affect you and you don't perceive there to be a problem?

No, I cringe because I know there is a problem, and more sexism - which is rampant in these threads - doesn't help. HN as a whole is simply not capable of having a mature discussion about these topics.

I am hoping that with deliberate practice, HN will become capable of a mature discussion about these topics. It is important enough to keep trying, even though it is hard.
