IMO the politics are clearly visible from the URLs in the topic when HennaX joined #debian-women in http://pastebin.ca/885288 Enforcement is up to the stakeholders, but this isn't a first for d-w.

It appears that the politics of prejudice is something in common! Men do this, women do that?

It's frustrating, but this has been known to me since at least 2005 and was reaffirmed on this list late last year. I doubt I'm the first to spot it. There is no need to demonstrate it again. If anyone wants to change it, please figure out how to persuade people that basic human rights should be affirmed by debian as a project. I'm not that great at persuading a hostile audience that I have little in common with (see para.1 above), and I already burnt a few bridges defending my own rights. > And I express all this in public not only to fight back and to try to > be accepted as the person who I am.

It's all here somewhere. Just not well-known. We can hardly expect the press team to publish "Debian entrenches prejudices" - not a good headline and a bit away from the main aims of this project.
