maybe is has been worse, maybe other projects do worse.
I have been to IRC channels of other distros and went away quickly, yes.
Still: I use Gentoo for about a year; during that year I have seen many
cases.

I was expecting someone to bring up "hugs and kisses" as you say.
In my impression other technical projects do much better in that regard
so it doesn't seem impossible. KDE and Xiph come to my mind: they do
better. Our low number of female developers could also be an indicator
for the atmosphere in here.
I wouldn't feel to bad if Gentoo is widely recognized as the
distribution with the most friendly community around in 2011.
Best,
Sebastian
