That has not been my experience. I think much of the perception of
"liberal bias" is actually caused by the generally widespread
acceptance
of the average anglophone Wiki[mp]edian towards diversity; at least
comparatively to the societies they primarily represent.
All my apologies, I wanted to write "I suppose that our project also
attract *some* homophobic minds".
My hypothesis is that -- pretty much be definition -- a group of
people
rallying together under the banner of Open Knowledge has a strong
natural aversion to the kind of obscurantism and information control
that is necessary for prejudice and discrimination. While there may
be
individuals that have problems, the group's natural flow will work
against it.

I agree and it's also my experience. Also while free software movement
seems to have bigger problem with women arrassement, the wider free
culture movement seems less affected. However androcracy being a general
society problem, I suppose you may expect to find that kind of
comportement in our movement too.
