When it comes to Mastodon, I’ve had higher than usual unpleasant experiences of men trying to explain things to me or men asking me leading questions so they can explain things to me (usually that thing involves why Mastodon is better than all the others). Has anyone else has that experience?
@abbie @LouisIngenthron this is interesting, I hadn’t thought about that!
@skrishna
I am an engineer. We do that to each other, too.
Joking aside, unconscious bias is very real. It was good for you to shine some light on it.
@abbie @LouisIngenthron
@LouisIngenthron @skrishna I find this a lot with original mastodon people, not newcomers (I've been on here since 2019)
