It's a very mixed opinion from Anonymous, the first paragraph about Adria being an extremist is very fair and direct. Adria DID over-hear a PRIVATE conversation that wasn't meant for her, took a photo of two individuals WITHOUT their permission and posted it to her twitter account, accusing them of harassment. What Adria has done to the feminism community is not justice, but damage.<p>The whole point of feminism is about bringing equality - That there should exist no discernible separation lines between both the genders. But what Adria has done is made sure the males in future are extra-careful and scared of their female counter-parts when in a professional event, which itself is a terrible, subtle kind of discrimination. As a matter of fact, searching on Twitter reveals that many women do agree with this - She has damaged feminism, more than doing anything good.<p>I can only imagine the outrage of the same incident inverted - had those two men taken a photo of her and shared it on their Twitter accounts and had Adria been offended, the situation would be totally different and both these men would have been brought down their knees, this soft attitude towards Adria for violating someone else's privacy by itself is a sexist approach IMO.<p>I think, we all need to maintain a strict platform for justice - Don't be too soft on a woman because she's a woman, at the same time, don't be too hard on a man because he's a man and vice-versa. Regardless of gender, I believe justice should be served.<p>As a matter of fact, Adria has been deleting comments on her blog about people who tried to bring up a sexist remark that she made, yet she got away with (you can search for her name on twitter and can confirm this).<p>What Anonymous is doing here is a bit extremist in my opinion - Bringing down a whole company because they stood behind a dishonest employee and failed to offer any fairness or justification on their part. But, maybe if they were doing something illegal, I think they might as well go down. And I hope this serves as a very valuable lesson for others in the tech as well - Be it males or femals, to follow the path of righteousness instead of hating one another and waiting for a moment to simply bring the other gender to shame.<p>God, I just hope that there will be a day when I can sit next to a person and sit beside them and talk to them like a normal person without imposing restrictions on myself on my behaviour, appearance / characteristics instead of constantly trying to be aware that I am talking to {gender} instead of a <i>person</i> which is the situation as of now.
