Hahaha. I don't agree. I choose to walk down the street. That does not mean I "choose" to leave myself open to catcalls and negative shit that happens to women whether it's online or off.

My take is the people who talk to you that way are the ones who CHOOSE. Trust me, they do not talk that way to the person who signs their paycheck.

Zero tolerance. Hide the nasty comments and move on. They haven't earned more than that. Earning your time and attention requires manners they didn't bother to bring.

Sorry that happened to you. :)
