Speaking for myself, but as a mod, I thought the post
was strongly
worded, and perhaps disrupted the mailing list to illustrate a point,
but mostly on target. I've twice been the victim of attempts at
stalking that have moved between online and real life. It's terrifying.
I expressed sympathy for SlimVirgin herself and condemned the nutballs
behind the "outing." I focused my displeasure on the response to
discussion attempts on-wiki and explicitly pointed out in several posts
that SlimVirgin didn't appear to be involved in that.
In response, I was cast in the role of one who excuses rapists. This was
_not_ on target, not remotely.
