Markos at dailyKOS needs to get over himself ...

I agree with Markos' point that a blogger-code-of-conduct has very little to do with the issue of the threats that Kathy Sierra received.

And I would have preferred that she felt she had the kind of support from others on the web with similar problems to stick it out. That was one of the things that the feminist movement provided: support. But a later generation started backing away letting themselves be convinced that 'feminist' was another dirty word like 'liberal.'

But what really galled me about Markos' post is his equating 'a gem' of a email (or comment, I'm not sure which) he received with the explicit and obscene missives that Sierra received.

Markos repeatedly shows his insensitivity to women's issues.
