If you feel unable to stay civil, then as per this site's guidelines, please fight the urge to post. As a male in the startup world, my interest in this article is to keep in mind what not to do. It is irrelevant to me who works at Twitter. If you click keeper into the site, you'll see this good piece of advice (http://ladycoders.com/2013/01/10/men-in-tech-marshall-kirkpa...):

"What advice do you have for men in tech? I would advise listening to feminist women and presuming that they are right as an intellectual starting place, even if you don’t believe they are, and see where the thread of thought and conversation can go from there before zooming out and drawing your own conclusions. Hold onto your objections for later, and after we’ve journeyed through the conversation for a while, see if those objections still seem relevant. Doing this helps you be less stupid. Benefit from the wisdom that we would otherwise miss out on because of defensive, misinformed assumptions on our part."
