You haven't said anything sexist about it, except that it has a clear purpose. You sound like a good-old misogynistic curmudgeon. You have certainly never given any indication that you are actually trying to improve the position of women in Debian; all you have done is snipe at those who have identified the problem and are trying to address it. Jonathan Walter's platform is a symptom of the problem: rather than ask women what might address the problems that women confront, he has announced who he would appoint, even assuming that Gloria Steinem cares beans about Debian, without actually talking to the people concerned. This is not the inclusion of women; it is the presumption to attempt to speak for them. It shows to me that he has no intention of taking women seriously, because even in platform which announced that pretended intention, he demostrated that he is not willing to treat them as equals and consult with them.
