Artist Katarzyna Babis created this comic which makes a very sad but true point about comments that women often face both online and in person. Here at Geek Girls we have always taken a stand against bullying and harassment. Unfortunately we still get comments like these on both sides on the spectrum daily and are aware it will most likely never stop, but that doesn't stop us from trying to educate people that these attitudes are hurtful to other people and completely uncalled for. Anyway, here's a few clarifications from the artist about her comic...

"And just to make things clear - yes, I'm aware that they are both men and women saying those words to other women. Not only men can be opressive, I know that. And I know that this "burning bras" thing never actually happened, but this is what many many people associate feminism with and this is what I am talking about here.

Oh, and I'm superglad if you never heard those words and never been hurt this way, but only because you were lucky and grew up in a friendly society doesn't mean it's always like that. Here, in Poland, for example, we have a huge problem with that. And not only with unkind words and being rude - but with serious violence."
