    So it seems like the gaming environment is a place to act out misogynist fantasies…a kind of anti-universe of violence, akin to nasty, interactive substitute for porn. Some women are speaking up against this and there is a backlash from the gamers, who are showing their true colors.

    Legally, seems we are in federal territory here, between hate crime, online stalking and an interestate issue.
