I don't like to post private conversations, but this has been reported in other communities and it is an important piece of the puzzle to crearly understand the situation.
This has to be discussed, because I think we need to fix the gender gap, but this kind of "fundamentalism" is not healthy. This doesn't seem to be the right path, but maybe I could be wrong.
Simply slapping down evidence on the table really isn't helpful when parties can't explain their side.
I posted it because it shows how bad is this and how it has gone far from by being a simple "contrast of opinions". One of the 2 guys involved posted this online, I think this deserves to be discussed and explained.
The environment is not friendly, it's getting better, but I can't consider it genuinely equal. In the opposite I think the way she's trying to pursuit the goal is wrong and counterproductive. There are many other ways to achieve a goal like promoting gender equality in tech scene, fighting with insults and expose (barely) fundamentalist opinions on Twitter would not help.
Core and the Foundation will deal with this, and I'll make a public statement after they do. But until this problem has been resolved, there's no point in explaining it to a bunch of randoms that aren't even a part of the project. I give 0 fucks about the court of public opinion when it comes to dealing with an abuser in an open source project that I've been a part of for over a decade.
