My God, The Harassment Is Coming From Inside The Industry! BananaStock/BananaStock Getty Images Brianna wrote an article for Polygon about the anonymous harassment of women in the industry. So of course she got a lot of anonymous harassment for it, because irony is a complicated concept, but being s----- is pretty basic. Since we talked to her, it's only gotten worse, and death threats containing her home address have come pouring in. If you're a woman in the game industry and you're vocal about wanting to be treated like a human being, hate mail is just another part of your day That constant stream of abuse can pour over into your friendships, marriage, and professional life because negativity is a liquid, and it always settles at the bottom. And trust us, you don't want that s--- all up in your soul: It tastes of old hot dog water and partially digested Jagermeister Every woman we talked to has encountered the attitude "You just need to suck it up and be strong. But, as Katie points out, that's putting the onus on the wrong person. see that as kind of victim-blaming. it's not other people's fault for being terrible human beings, it's your fauit for not being able to deal with it There's something wrong with you, not them. And that's a really sad attitude for peopie to have to put up with. But it's quite common. I think every woman in the industry knows it whether they admit it or not" Christopher Robbins/Digital Vision/Getty Images Honestly, have you considered Steve, Chris, Frank from accounting, and Chad's feelings at aw during this? Sounds like you're being a bit self-centered. If you're a woman, you're not allowed to have an emotional reaction to threats that would obviously provoke an emotional reaction in anyone. At least, not without being accused of hysteria. Then you're just a crazy chick taking mean words on the Internet too seriously, and your problem isn't real anymore. That's an awful phenomenon
