This doesn't seem LW-specific.

Of course, unless anything of that happened at a LW meetup or -- Omega forbid -- a Minicamp.

Did it?

The Minicamp cab?

Not that I know of. Obviously it has happened somewhere, in some city, given the number of LW meetups. Statistics do not permit otherwise, even allowing for male LW attendees to be unusually cultured.

OP says these are excerpts from longer responses (average of 18/7 pages per woman). In the original context, it's probably part of a complaint about creepiness and LW.

Just wanted to clarify: The posts were kept whole, so each person's post was NOT split up in any way or excerpted/shortened. All I did was a bit of speelcheking, and grouped some submissions on similar topics into one post.
