Portland Tribune Article, with yours truly.

[LeftWingVixen]

As I stated a few weeks ago, I was interviewed by a Portland Tribune journalist on a concerning issue - being misogyny.

 

The reporter interviewed a female comedian, a female writer, a female gamer (me), and a female construction worker.

Also with some women being fellow sex workers.

 

Of course, I addressed my home-game, Wolfenstein.

 

I'm VERY grateful I got front page of this issue as well (me being the one doing the pole-trick! The head shot is the lovely Elle).

Interesting read, well done on the interview .

 

I have noticed that while women in gaming atleast do seem to receive more attention in general, they also receive more hate, and that is judging on what I can see in the main chat.

 

It is stupid to judge based on gender in my opinion, but sometimes I think, and this is especially true in gaming, that men don't really know how to deal with women. That's definitely no excuse for being an a**h**** though.

Nice article Vix, way to represent Wolfenstein!

 

Secondly I'm deeply disturbed by some of the issues you brought to light in the article. The way you've been treated and talked about is just wrong and its sad that that kind of thing goes on! YOUR a strong, smart, and beautiful woman!

Strength has no gender....you are beautiful....everyone escapes reality..in their way..playing a role on this earth..nothing is new..there are doers,and....critics trying to impose upon you their values..if someone thinks you are provocative..you made your point. .....meet criticism with glee..makes me laugh

Thank you everyone for your support!

 

And hmm, I'll have to see if there's an alternative link I can post when I get home for those who couldn't read it.

 

Much love.

[LeftWingVixen]

Maybe it's an out-of-country problem.

Hmm.

 

I'll figure it out.

Nope, Entire portlandtribune.com is not working, can't even open the home page. I think they have their securitiy settings on paranoid level. According to the message, this is an issue on their side, they need to relax their firewall settings.

 

Are you telling me, you folks from within USA can open the site and see the article?

[Raskin]

Yes..I can open article..guess security..what are you hiding Portland?
