Hi, it's been a long time since we last crossed paths; I came here via Abigail Nussbaum's post.
I just wanted to say thank you for this post, but especially for this: every time I see, for instance, Elizabeth Bear or Teresa Nielsen Hayden lauded as being especially clueful on questions of oppression, or put on a con panel about codes of conduct (for fuck's sake!), it's like being poked in a bruise For whatever it's worth, you are certainly not alone in that reaction. I flinch every single time, still, and expect I always will.
