Head On Fire

113: Episode 182: Inciting A Femme While Gaming Riot


Listen Later

Being a femme presenting person in an online space is to constantly walk a minefield of harassment, intimidation, and abuse. To have your authority questioned and your opinion overlooked in favor of a man's. Things aren't better behind the screens either. Earlier this year a lawsuit against one of the world's biggest game makers, Activision Blizzard, brought to light a long-standing "frat boy" culture that permeated all levels of the company and promoted a culture of harm. 

My deepest gratitude to my guests Cara and Deme for their honesty.
