Hi,
Just wanted to point out this discussion. If you're not familiar with Quora, it's
a question-and-answer site, which has generally done a good job of attracting intelligent
and thoughtful participants. (The site sometimes requires you to make an account to see
its content, but this question is fully visible without an account.)
Anyway, the question is:
Is online hate speech directed toward women escalating in recent years, or is it just
being documented and talked about more?

As I write this, there are two interesting answers; in addition, the more detailed version
of the question has a number of interesting links.
Just thought list members might want to look at a related discussion in a different
forum.
