Kickstarter Apologizes for Not Yanking 'Seduction Guide'
Crowdfunding platform Kickstarter has apologized for not pulling down a project called "A Guide to Getting Awesome with Women" following a series of complaints that called the content highly offensive
After Kickstarter caught wind of a blog post making the rounds on Reddit, which pointed out the questionable material found on the project, the company decided to keep it on the site. Kickstarter has since pulled the project — which promised step-by-step instructions on "getting good with women" — and is donating $25,000 to anti-sexual violence organization RAINN
(Note: The project's page is still visible in cache by clicking here.)
