    Extremely common. In gaming, twitch, YouTube comments, forums, 9gag comments, Reddit… The presence of women has been minuscule for a long while, and that’s translated as hostile to women.

      9gag

      Really? I don’t even remember the last time 9gag was known for anything other than being uncool and irrelevant.

      Sounds like you’re in a bubble of a lot of sexist communities. That’s real unfortunate- you should maybe try to get out of that.

        Why are you saying I am in those spaces now? You asked in past tense, I answered how it was 15 years ago.

        I left most of those a long time ago and several have changed. It’s important to remember history, 15 years is pretty recent.
