There was a time when opening the door for a woman was considered a polite gesture.
However nowadays, its considered a gesture created by a dominant man who thinks he is above that person. So when men stopped holding doors for women to show their belief in gender equality, bad things started happening...
it'll take some time, but I think they'll get the hang of it sooner or later. They just need a little support and confidence, but they will get there.

Why was he forced into this humiliation? Because he was subjected to an unrelenting tweetstorm of abuse. He was bombarded across the internet with a hurtling dustcloud of hate, orchestrated by lobby groups and politically correct media organizations. And so I want, naturally, to defend this blameless man. And as for all those who have monstered him and convicted him in the kangaroo court of the web – they should all be ashamed of themselves. Yes, I suppose some might say that his Hawaii shirt was a bit garish, a bit of an eyeful. But the man is not a priest, for heaven’s sake. He is a space scientist with a fine collection of tattoos, and if you are an extrovert space scientist, that is the kind of shirt that you are allowed to wear.

I don't know much about the issue of feminism so i'll read all the comments here and make myself an opinion that I'll use in real life.

- honestly, anyone knows the fact about gamergate can only get irritated that she's so full of shit and makes no factual sensegeorgesIII
- She's right about gamergate. It has nothing to do with journalism or ethics and everything to do with the perceived invasion of women into a traditionally male club.i_monk
- women into a traditionally male space.i_monk
- that is so not true that it hurts, it's quite incredible that you enjoy beeing lied to repeatdlygeorgesIII
- especially it irritates me that the likes of sarkeesian who never played video games are the voices of the women in gaming..georgesIII
- Name a single credible source that has investigated gamergate and agrees with you.i_monk
- I can play that game too and ask you to name one thing she said in her video that are actually based on truthgeorgesIII

@ Imonk, this will a response not directly directed at you so don't take it badly,
but like everything related to feminism and other ISMs,
you have to take a minute and verify what they are sayingeg:
• 1 in 2 womyn will get abused...
• womyn makes $3999999 less than cis men...
• less womyn are interested in math or physics, because men keeps them down....I've yet to find one of the so called feminist claim that is actually backed by reputable studies or unbiased analises.
but I digress, sarkeesian isn't to be trusted and for you guys to see through her bs, you only have to carefully listen to all of her videos and check the facts of what she's saying,
- Did you get bullied by a feminist at school or something?set
- I mean you really seem to give an actual fuckset
- because unlike you, I do not adhere to a movement because it's cool and can see where staying silent will lead us, enjoy your emasculationgeorgesIII
- How do you know anything about me you arrogant little fuck?set
- not arrogant, you are so transparent it's not funny, "did you get bullied at school"... so you only interested in what affects you directly, says a lot about the character imhogeorgesIII
- affects you directly, says a lot about the character imhogeorgesIII
- Haha what an arrogant, deluded little self righteous prick...set
- Though I'm sure I can be the same.set

OK. Here are three.
1. Gamergate isn't actually about ethics in journalism:
http://www.newsweek.com/gamergat…
"But an analysis by Newsweek found that Twitter users tweeting the hashtag #GamerGate direct negative tweets at critics of the gaming world more than they do at the journalists whose coverage they supposedly want scrutinized.""In the following graphic, compare how often GamerGaters tweet at Zoe Quinn, a developer, and Nathan Grayson, a Kotaku games journalist. In August, GamerGaters accused Grayson of giving Quinn’s game Depression Quest favorable reviews because Grayson and Quinn had been in a relationship. The relationship was fact, those ‘favorable reviews’ were fiction."
"Twitter users have tweeted at Quinn using the #GamerGate hashtag 10,400 times since September 1. Grayson has received 732 tweets with the same hashtag during the same period. If GamerGate is about ethics among journalists, why is the female developer receiving 14 times as many outraged tweets as the male journalist?"
2. Gamergate is actually about attacking people, regardless of their unethical behaviour in game journalism:
http://nivenus.kinja.com/5-myths…
"That's not to say there aren't real problems in video game journalism. There are. There's Warner Bros recent attempt to legally coerce YouTubers into providing positive coverage for their game Shadow of Mordor. There's Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford's promise to hold reviewers who slammed Duke Nukem Forever "accountable." There's publisher's tendencies to push out "bullshot," footage which has been manipulated to make a game look more graphically impressive than it really is. There's the games industry's massive focus on awards shows, which are arguably at this point more about hype than anything else. There's plenty of problems to go around."But is this what Gamergaters talk about? No, not even remotely. Instead of talking about major publishers bullying reviewers into giving their games' good reviews or the industry's obsession with award shows, Gamergaters focus their ire on small developers, feminist critics, and the journalists who support them."
3. Women are being threatened over this and she personally was threatened with death if she spoke at Utah State Uni:
http://www.usu.edu/ust/index.cfm…
"As you are aware, several USU staff members received a threatening email at 10:15 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 13 regarding Anita Sarkeesian’s talk scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 15. As you probably have read, this email threatened both Ms. Sarkeesian and those who attended her event."The safety of our students, staff and USU community is paramount to us. USU police were contacted immediately, as were state and federal agencies, including the Utah Statewide Information and Analysis Center, the FBI Cyber Terrorism Task Force, and the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit.
"Prior to the threat, USU police were already making preparations for security as Ms. Sarkeesian had received threats in the past..."
Bonus: Here's a female developer being chased from her home. Because developers are to blame for what journalists write, somehow, and this isn't about harassing women who dare to criticize the status quo in gaming:

How to Turn a Cool Moment Into a #ShirtStorm
"To suggest that a heterosexual man is incapable of seeing women both as sexual beings and as people is insulting to men and rather sad for women—a feminist version, if you will, of the old Madonna/whore complex (call it the bimbo/brain complex)."
