Unspoken agreement

As a geek/nerd/differently socialized person, I practically believe that "nonverbal communication" is a contradiction in terms. One corollary is that there is no such thing as dressing so as to invite groping, tasteless comments, or other harassment. Geek Feminism agrees.

Oh no, not again. I thought the loud and clear response to the Open Source Boob Project had got this message through.

When I read of this kind of thing happening at cons, I am so very glad I've never been to one.

When I see things like this, I have an urge to go to cons - with a baseball bat - and bring as many burly friends (preferably female) as I can find.

p.s. You don't know me; [personal profile] weofodthignen pointed this message out to me.
