So now Mary turns up to accuse RPM and the rest of us of sexism. She has
some nerve. Sexism is immoral - something alien to the Lila Squad.
We're the ones who understand MoQ, the ones who read Lila- An
inquiry into morals.
Sexist? Not me! Some of my best friends are women.
Come on guys. Let's admit that Mary is right, and the rest of us missed
it. RPM and the rest of us have tuned our radar to be sensitive to SOM,
and ended up insensitive to deficiencies in our social values. I'm
afraid that none of the excuses I've read so far really hold water.
Let's face it, the Lila Squad is male dominated. My wife has found
plenty of female-dominated discussion groups, so it's not an Internet
thing.
Thanks, Mary for raising the subject. This is something to keep in mind
when discussing Lila.
