I would like to be able to donate in Bitcoin to Anita Sarkeesian or one of her projects that's called Feminist Frequency(which succeeded splendingly on
kickstarter.com) which she is very famous for. Feminist Frequency is currently only accepting PayPay which is a shame.
Through Feminist Frequency she is making an analysis of gender stereotypes in video games. Today there's hardly a person who doesn't know about her which is a person who
also cares about the internet in a genuine sort of way. Her videos are
free to download on youtube and she has only done the work through donations.
To my knowledge she has never received money in any way through Bitcoin, and finding references on Bitcoin and Anita Sarkeesian has ended up on Bitcoin talk on a thread with a topic not even about her nor about Feminist Frequency or any other of her projects.
This thread is dedicated to if it's possible to give donations to Feminist Frequency to support the cause, what the community here feels about it, if it's just 'ok', indifference or if it would be great. Maybe there will be much interest or little.
The world needs a little more love and Bitcoin certainly needs it too. I may ask her if she would like to start accepting it, maybe or maybe not depending on how the thread goes what the community thinks of her work.
Flattr has written a few things about Anita(before they started accepting Bitcoin 5 months afterwards) in light of "Gender, Technology, Diversity and Creativity"
http://blog.flattr.net/2013/02/gender-technology-diversity-and-creativity/ writing about her in a very positive light.
------------------------
I have a hard time finding any arguments backed by sources. Anita Sarkeesian, among others, has/have transcripts of what she says in her videos. If you wanna back your argumentation and not just spam with stuff you think she
might have said, then quote stuff she
has said in the transcripts(example
transcript) of a specific video.
UPDATE: I had a summary here, but after seeing the evolution of the thread I think we are on a more creative and productive path as the first pages may be an indication of how to approach the subject. But...
If you came here to spread hate and misinformation you are
not welcome.
UPDATE 2: This new summary is on the progress of whether Feminist Frequency will accept Bitcoin as a donation option:
Page1-Page7 From constructive, neutral and hostile(including Ad Hominems) interaction with the Bitcoin community.

post #160 with a
tweet asking @femfreq if she knows how Bitcoin works and if she likes Cryptography.
Page9
post #168 with a
tweet to @femfreq about
How Bitcoin Works, Cryptographic checksums(she has talked about Bittorrent before), briefly mentioning Digital Signatures and Public-key Cryptography.
