Yes. That's was what I was talking about.

On the other hand, I'd like to point out that the thread topic had already drifted to internet comments when I commented. I'm not sure why I was singled out.
And yes, what Janine-- someone who is sexist is also likely to be ablelist (spelling?), racist, classist, etc.

Is there really a type of misogyny that stands alone from other nastiness? In my experience, those who make comments against women also do about other races, ethnics, sexual orientations, classes, etc.
The problem with misogyny on Wikipedia is probably more that it is easier to know if another editor is a woman vs. any of the other biases.
Aside from having everyone use non-feminine usernames and not divulge personal information, I'm not sure what else would work if this is the case.

Actually, I think that's true for all minorities--I know the comment section in the online edition of one of my local newspapers can turn pretty ugly if an article is written about a black guy getting arrested. That's less likely to happen if the suspect is white.

Abusive comments are a gender thing. Stories about or by women are more likely to get abusive comments, in public and private, based solely on the gender of the subject or the author. -VAL
