The reading experience of this article on a PC is mildly infuriating. The font is fixed size, zooming out does nothing, arrow keys don't scroll up or down. Everything is javascript, so Firefox' reading mode shows zero actual text

It works poorly for me on mobile too!

I can't even read it at all, probably too much blocked shit. Majority of the web just sucks ass nowadays.

Gender bias aside, I don't think the male perspective is much better

no but, it's important because these things are happening to poor women that don't deserve to be treated like shit.

This really feels like Wired reached a conclusion before writing the article. The survey results aren't amazing, but they're a lot better than I'd have expected based on the article.

Obviously some very gross individual examples though.

That's actually a lot better than I was expecting.

Not great. Just not as bad.

“…and they told it all to WIRED!”

Article ends.

70% are satisfied, but it's a industry in decline. Everyone is feeling it. Summaried that entire article down to the important bits.
