Oh, I have no need to, in fact I jumped at a KAM's critical error in

I was certainly brash in my rant but the ASF and the computer industry
as a whole is too misogynistic. I'd like us to be more open. My
sister "hides" using Sam instead of Samantha to trick people into
assuming she is male due to issues she has encountered. I'd like that
not to happen.
So if you see a critical error with my proposed plan to order the
bracelets with the ASF Feather (see thread), please be more specific
as I purposefully delayed the order a day to make sure it wasn't too
offensive. Though in reverse bias, I have deferred more strongly to
the input of the XY chromosome holders as it is important for this to
be supportive but not offensive to those we are trying to support.
Damn my internal pro-male filter. s/XY/XX/.
