Well, even if you did say they were toxic I'd have agreed with you, like others here have said any reasonable comments made would have been buried under a metric fuckton of bullshit anyhow.

I think there is a misunderstanding here however, when GenjiKilpatrick and others are talking about Sarkeesian "being called on her shit" they mean the reasoned criticism, not the threats, nobody here is arguing in favor of that.
I am curious though, unless you know something about these threats that I don't, how do you know that they are in fact "Serious"? Most people can dream up all kinds of crazy shit or even talk about it, but that still doesn't put you into Dexter Morgan territory (Dexter would be too polite to say anything like that anyhow, and Sarkeesian doesn't fit Harry's Code).
If you are referring to the UCU lecture that she cancelled, then no, neither campus security nor the FBI advised her against going through with the appearance, she made that choice on her own.

You also say "It's unseemly to imply a single woman should ignore such threats or assume they are not credible", which makes me wonder if this was a man we were talking about would you still feel the same way? Adam Orth received death threats to both himself and his family and while it did create a lot of discussion, even heated discussion, it did not generate the same kind of mass outrage that this has so far. Gabe Newell also got a threat from a developer some time back and that got barely a peep out of anyone.
Simply put, we still live in a society that puts on a good public show of equality for men and women, but privately we still teach our little boys that men are still the true protectors of our society. We don't get as upset when men face danger because that is what we expect of them, and this kind of deeply embedded cultural belief is the real heart of sexism in our society. This debate over the role of women in video games is all superficial because I believe it comes from those much older beliefs.

Probably because PA's humor is more juvenile and videogame related? It's impressive what they did with PAX and Gabe's art has really improved over the years, but TED is really not their audience.

When the Gabe speaks, we listen.

What a horribly unhealthy thing to have at your work. I know I'd eat too much crap food if it was just THERE and free all the time while I was coding.


My TV has channels for horrible things like hours of reality TV, soap operas, etc. but I somehow manage to not tune in.

It sounded like Gabe requested the diet Coke, presumably others have requested the fruit, trail mix, etc. so I imagine that between exercising some self control and requesting healthy alternatives an employee there could be happy, healthy, and fully snack-provisioned if they so desired.

Something tells me Gabe isn't interested in the fruit at the Snack Bar...

Gabe wants everyone to look like him. Not all perks are good, and I thought Valve was better than that.

Oh Gabe Johnson... your company makes portal guns, sentry turrets, intelligent bots, and boots that keep a person alive in a great fall. I would sink my money into Aperture Science any day!
