I doubt forums are somehow worst thing out there for females.
There is that one episode of Women of noise podcast where artist mentions getting private contacts from me, that are like "you want to jam? You want to see my synth?", which sounded funny as hell when they were talking about it. Interviewer is telling how men come to criticize her live gear and recommending better synths. Hah.
While it is funny, I guess there is pretty frequent discussion how one should treat all sort of socially awkward, perhaps somehow "neurologally challenged" folks and even if it may get old pretty quick for females to get sort of autistic gear dudes (and such) approaching them, one would think that it may be clear most probably don't have malicious intent and one can cope with such situation exactly same ways as men do.
Most of my life, I knew "underground culture women". Very rarely I interact with so called normal folks. This may have effected what kind of experience I have, but if returning to opening post of the topic, I don't know any women who would be somehow upset about noise song titles and art. Most often it appears to be men, who see women as some sort of damsel in distress, while I almost exclusivesily seen women who can handle pretty much same things as men.
