   One of my videos has recently gotten a lot of attention from a certain type of male chauvinist, and I don't know why.

   It's amazing that there are men who say things like this. Not surprising, though.

   Also: men, come get your people.

     Also, don't tell me "just ignore them".

     They're the ones making decisions.

     They're the ones doing the hiring and the firing.

     They're the ones with mothers, sisters, and wives who can't ignore them.

     YOU have to do more policing of your own, and YOU have to stand up when you see this type of crass behavior.

     This very much reminds me of all of the times I (as the only developer on a project) would get told to "let your dev guy know he fixed the bug".

     Same mentality, different extreme.
