A comment I left in Sara's Open letter to OpenLeft thread:

An important point about Paul's behavior: the style he exhibits here has been shown to marginalize women in online communications -- see for example Susan Herring's Gender and power in online communications. For a self-described "feminist" to engage in this shows a real lack of respect for women and failure to take personal responsibility. Herring et. al.'s Searching for safety online: Managing "trolling" in a feminist forum is also good reading here; the NY Times Freakonomics blog and Shakesville have both had interesting threads recently about gender and trolling. (Disappointingly, this weekend's the very interesting NY Times magazine article on trolling doesn't discuss gender issues at all. )
