... and this is what it looks like in practice http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/womens-blog/2014/mar/31/laura-bates-everyday-sexism-double-discrimination-intersectionality Marie From: emilymonro...@gmail.com Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2014 22:51:22 -0500 To: gendergap@lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Gendergap] Adrienne Wadewitz featured in short piece about Gendergap on the English Wikipedia 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. From, Emily On Fri, Jul 11, 2014 at 9:57 PM, Janine Starykowicz <jrst...@barntowire.com> wrote: 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.

That's less likely to happen if the suspect is white.
