"Sex positive" sex pestery among thirsty New Atheist convention goers, and a feeemale daring to state she felt uncomfortable being propositioned in a closed elevator at 4am far from home, lead to Dawkins' notorious "Dear Muslima" letter.

I dare to suspect that the Youtube atheist fad of "debunking" creationists shifted gears to being really mad at feeemales and stayed there, only expanding the rage to SJWs/wokeness/DEI after that moment.

I don't want to repeat that vile piece of shit's words, but I do remember them clearly.
