Thanks to votes from many of you, some of the Feministing ladies (myself and Ann) and Amanda Marcotte from Pandagon and moderated by Cecily Walker will be on a panel at SXSWi, called "That's Not My Name: Beating Down Online Misogyny." If you are going to be in town please come through and say hello!

Needless to say, online misogyny is a topic we deal with regularly and it is a condition that we face online. Despite our ability to move towards a more free space where we can voice our opinions, we are consistently threated by emails, commenters and on other blogs and videos, with sexualized violence or we are just plain ridiculed for speaking in ways that disrupt sexual imbalances of power.

Our panel is going to focus not only stories of our own experiences with online misogyny but ways we have overcome it and best practices for other political and feminist bloggers on how to maintain your identity and politics in a hostile climate.

I am on this week's RH Reality Check podcast talking extensively about this topic. Check it out!
