There was a political blogger in the UK who used to object to comments by a female journalist, but did so using the most disgusting, hateful, and sexist comments I have ever read. The shame of it is that he got a lot of traffic as a result.

Needless to say I never subscribed.

I’m not worried. Just commenting on a disheartening phenomenon.

Don’t worry too much – such men are just a stupid and abrasive when they talk to other guys as they are talking to women. It’s almost always not a gender thing, but a social thing.

Take a look on Digg or YouTube any other ‘social’ site. You don’t need to be a girl to get abusive vapid rubbish spouted at you by some moron hidden behind a computer connection. Why do they usually pick looks or sex when they know it’s a girl on the receiving end? Because it’s assumed that a girl gives a damn about that and so it’s the best way to ruffle feathers. Likewise if it’s a guy on the receiving end usually their sexuality is questioned. Meh. If these are the best insults they can think to try, they’re boring as well as dysfunctional.
