I dont think that would be the effect / a sensible message neither. I rather
envision more involvement from women who otherwise would be "silent
observers", even more involvement from women who are already active, also
less wasted time due to male-centric discussions on topics, etc. Plus other
effects I'm too busy to imagine now ;-)
And, by all means do what you envision - I just wondered since it absolutly
wasnt (and isnt) obvious to me.
