AMEN. I'm sure many women will agree with me that getting hit on in a linkedin dm is so demoralizing.

I've had men as me if I did sex documentaries (?), just tell me I'm hot, and ask to connect because I look like I'm nice, all sorts of creepy stuff. These guys have impressive profiles and look like they're doing well, but they are slimeballs and it made me not want to use LinkedIn at all, which is hard when you're on the job Markey.
