Owning A Cat Is A Great Way To Meet Women Who Magically Appear In Your Living Room

I'm putting way too much thought into trying to interpret this. Is the author hallucinating the women? Is it just a twist on the practice of using dogs to meet women? Is it lampooning people who see pets as a means to an end?

People who care about gamergate.

Er, so you'd be totally cool with a female relative or friend being constantly harassed by these mooks? Calling her work repeatedly with bullshit stories to try and get her fired, threatening to rape or kill her, spreading rumors about how her accomplishments are really just trickery achieved via sexual favors, etc. Or would it be her own fault for doing something they didn't like, such as making a well-received video game or publicly stating an opinion? Perhaps it's also her own fault for accidentally leaving some trace of her "real" life available online, such as her name, likeness, workplace, or living witnesses who might post such information to the internet?

Those are rhetorical questions, by the way. The correct answers will always be "no" for any society where it's not okay to hold down and/or beat a minority for "not knowing their place".
