I'm still a little new to devrant. I may not get the culture here fully, yet, so apologies if this is a little heavy.

So much of what has gone on in the last year has highlighted how much crap women devs have to deal with from guys. I've seen hints of it here in rants that some people have shared.

As I see it, devrant is a safe space to just rant, ask questions, and share daily victories. Do we really need to add little sexual comments to the mix, too?

Maybe I'm a little sensitive after following online memes where women devs talk about their negative experiences. Maybe that's the point.

I don't think tossing comments about blowjobs as work benefits, deepthroating, and other, similar comments have anything to do with what devrant seems to me to be about. I also don't think they're ok.

If I'm feeling uncomfortable, I can imagine other people do too.

I'm sure it's possible to rant, share victories, and ask questions without all the sex stuff? I just think keeping it dev-related keeps everything on topic, and is more respectful.
