>What the hell kind of environment are you in where you get threats of physical violence "all the time"?
The internet? Try writing a post / column on any political topic (even game or music criticism) and see what happens.
(TFA too, mentioned comments/threats from end users and such mostly over the internet -- not threats made to her in her workplace).
Still even at the physical workplace, men are more prone to resort to a "fist fight" kind of situation and physical violence between them. Including the rare, but orders of magnitude more often than with women, example of men going postal and shooting up the place.
Then there's being bullied at school and the neighborhood. And the usual threats from enraged drivers, drunkards at some bar, etc -- which also end up in violence sometimes.
And in Europe at least, you have to also count the all too common violence between men at soccer matches and other popular sports.
