Discussion terminated due to lack of manners.

I decline to broaden the discussion. Your view point, not mine.

No. This is the General Tabletop Gaming Discussion forum and I have just as much right to be here as you. A pity, it was civil until now. Sweet irony.

I did. Next.

Flawed logic. Attempt to go from specific to general. Not playing. Collect actual data? Grow up? Stay home? Deal with it, same as you would anywhere else? Realize that the world isn't your personal oyster? Don't hang with the wrong crowd? Certainly not an anti-harassment baby patrol. Again...

Agree entirely. I have started to actively abandon products that insist on injecting politically correct drivel, cultural revision, gender issues, or other modern, revisionist concepts. I abandoned using a rather popular game world in favor or my own for the same reason. I too refuse to walk on...

It's not an urgent question since the evidence of occurrence is limited to a single, questionable article. As noted, harassment may happen anywhere. A normal person would report it, evade it, or whatever else is necessary to avoid trouble in the first place, not write a summary of alleged...

The article itself levels accusations with the sexist "white male terrorist" label. It's relevant.

Your point of view, not mine.

That would be an entirely different discussion, one you're not likely to enjoy. I'll offer that the goal of 3rd wave feminism is not equality. Social justice warriors these days don't actually care about making repairs. Like Klingons, it's the battle that matters.

I disagree with the premise simply because it's not relevant and refuse to follow the "where there's smoke there's fire" mentality. Harassment might happen anywhere. So what. I prefer to stay focused on the issue at hand, not move on to broad generalizations where even less fact exists.

Nah. Seriously, it's hard enough these days to find players without additional layers of crazy.

Disagree entirely with your personal interpretation and/or definitions, but don't care.

You asked.

Nothing to substantiate the claims after an entire year has gone by. Weak sauce.

Fear of unwarranted accusation by people with a social justice warrior bent, a feminist agenda, or Munchhausen syndrome. We all stay home in our little "safe spaces," never meet, never socialize, never game because accusation is accepted as fact and it's too big a risk. The accuser becomes the...

Only if you accept accusation as evidence. Blind faith in a fiction doesn't make it so. Also, the odds of ALL the alleged occurrences happening to a single person makes the account even less believable.

I stand corrected. Just the alleged "white male terrorist" ones.

Unsubstantiated accusation directed at an entire community to illicit sympathy offers nothing of real value. It's fiction without documentation.

Agreed. The vast majority of the article is completely unsubstantiated. I've had women at my table many times over the years without issue, including wives and girlfriends. As a matter of fact, I ran a campaign for two years that was entirely collage-aged women with males bouncing in and out of...
