Thanks for the invitation, but those events don't fit into my schedule.
I hope in my absence you'll find away to empower yourself without
disenfranchising others or reinforcing harmful cis-gender stereotypes.
I wish you a constructive summit!

Well more than half your argument is about how "the court of public
opinion" regards interactions on the mailing list.  Why is this
discussion exempt?

You should have thought about that before you posted your assault on
free expression to every single social media outlet you have access to,
With any luck, next time, you will.

This wasn't about having a discussion, it was about "taking a stand,"
and since the reaction to the stand wasn't unanimously supportive, it's
easier to take it inside the wire, out of public view, before backing
down.

I object to your sexist implicit assertion that women are incapable of
