I suggest we ask the people who are minorities at the event if it or any other proposal is enough. You and I, as the white male majority, can't tell. For dudes claiming this is unneccessary, do you know what it's like to have a public profile online, like you and I do, but as a female? " In 2006, researchers from the University of Maryland set up a bunch of fake online accounts and then dispatched them into chat rooms. Accounts with feminine usernames incurred an average of 100 sexually explicit or threatening messages a day. Masculine names received 3.7." http://www.psmag.com/navigation/health-and-behavior/women-arent-welcome-internet-72170/ > --Mitch > > > _______________________________________________ > CREATE mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create
