I was getting ready to send a note that basically said I give up when I saw this post from Randy. Thanks Randy.
Then a friend posted this TED talk and it landed in my facebook feed. It gives me hope that there are a few men out there who might get the issue. I personally would love to see the IETF consult someone like this speaker. http://www.upworthy.com/a-ted-talk-that-might-turn-every-man-who-watches-it-into-a-feminist-its-pretty-fantastic-7?g=2 I have found this whole thread discouraging and I felt the need to say something. This TED talk pretty much sums it up.
