I think this is a really honest point. I'd also like to springboard off of it. As the authors point out, many men are shocked by these stories. I am too. I've been in tech 10 years or so (mostly startups) and have a lot of semi-abusive stuff to report, but none of it that I've seen is gender/sex related.

I agree it's good to share awareness of these problems. However, I think there's nothing more for me to do. None of my female coworkers have ever reported something fishy, and if they did I'd simply report it to HR where I know the situation would be handled.

I also wonder if it'd be productive to stop singling out tech (which seems much less sexist than say, finance).
