From his post:
He continues in a response to a comment:After a great deal of consideration Ive decided not to go to TAM this year. I love TAM - it's the highlight of my year, but the recent attitudes expressed make me feel it's probably not safe for single males to attend the event. There are a lot of people trying to make a point, and who they defame or slander in the process really doesn't matter much.
Gentlemen, if you choose to go, put a lawyer on retainer before hand and be sure to be super careful.
What was is P.Z. said? "The bullies have won"?Honestly, I'm just worried about what the hell is going to happen there. I by no means condone harassment, but I'm not sure which way things will go and I think the risk is too high. Also, as a male I am not sure I am welcome being there. There seems to be such a strong message of "WE HAVE TOO HIGH A RATIO OF MALES TO FEMALES" I feel kinda like I am part of the problem sometimes.
