"the harassing issue is so bad here that I watched a person completely disintegrate her Steemit reputation in a matter of hours because she was so upset about the harassment women are enduring here on this platform. She was begging for a blocking option and got so upset that, she felt, no one was listening to her complaints that she literally became what she was complaining about and went on a tirade. It was sad to see someone get that upset, ruin their Steemit reputation and probable future and announce they will never come back to Steemit and will post on FB that other women should avoid Steemit."

"They either cannot come up with a solution, don't think there needs to be a solution or feel that they've already created the solution. But the fact remains, a large portion of the female Steemit user base do not feel safe here and continue to get harassed by a few individuals"

The day has come when you, @tuck-fheman and I see eye to eye. I never could see it coming when I first joined Steemit as your post pissed me off. But I see that you and I are two sides of one coin: honest. That's why you and I have the highest reputation on Steemit, to this day. I call it like it is. No bullshit.
Being careful and cautious about not offending the whales and being denied their shrinking and shriveling whale teat will be the death of this platform.
What value does a group of women have anyway? Not much apparently. I was representing a group of growing discontent in the female user base. I am no longer speaking just for myself. I am glad that you spoke up about this issue that has remain ignored. Last time I checked the Alexa ranking, the female user base is dropping life flies. Many of the women I have brought in say they are just going to wait it out, and not participate.
