I'm trying to make sense of this comment and am drawing a complete blank.

Seems to me that zero unwanted online sexual advances from creepers of the opposite sex would be an example of "winning", not an example of "men have it bad, too."

As a guy who wishes he'd had zero unwanted online sexual advances from creepers, what am I missing here?

You may be struggling to make sense of this by inserting some sort of "who is winning and who is losing" query. I'm not positing winning, losing, better, or worse for anyone. I'm stating that men and women have different online experiences and most are not aware that the other has a different experience.

Okay, so non-zero over what time-frame?

Without meeting IRL, is there any way for you to determine if these "creepers" are scammers? You may find they are nearly all scammers if probe even just a little.

You may have something in your profile most men do not have, making you a more attractive target, because, really, HN is full of men and although this is a really poor survey, you are so far the only person stating you experience elsewise.

I would be curious to hear if you receive initial contact from non-"creeper" women. Women also receive non-harassing contact from men, whereas men generally don't receive any.
