     @maco I hope they mean the offensive behaviour described therein—that *might* be unsuitable for kids. …Blocking the site is hardly helpful.

     @maco What's damaging about it? Do they filter content with the keyword 'women'? Absurd.

     @qense I think that sexistic incidents aren't very suitable for children. Most boys of my age(13) would copy the behaviour, for example.
