Debomitro's point ignores the conditioning of women in society. But you should have been more clear. This article should be helpful on some aspects that your remark relates to: http://text-relations.blogspot.dk/2013/03/the-young-girl-and-selfie.html
I think the main concerns of the OP have been largely ignored by later comments in this thread. I would like to put the focus back to the issues OP had raised. Particularly, I would ask people here to focus on the "bug" report style improvement that OP had suggested for improvement of the mailing list rules.
I believe there will be more transparency in this group if a decentralized pattern is adopted for making decisions, instead of concentrating the authority in the hands of a few admins. Admins can be responsible for handling the technical part, but let suggestions of how a group will operate come from the entire group and not from a few individuals.
This group needs to be a forum for welcoming new people to FOSS, and enthuse them with the ideals of hacker culture of learning through constructive creativitity and sharing. Not a place where members have to follow rigorous "rules".
Also, "rules" needs to be renamed to "guidelines", and be made more flexible and less in number. Let the group decide what it wants and feels comfortable it, rather than spoon-feeding it with present guides and in turn taking away its ability to think independently.
