Umm... no, it's not.  By calling most of the women who object to your posts
"PC", you're being dismissive, both to them and the points they are trying
to make.

> That seems like a rather "looking-for-a-fight" remark.

Funny, that's how I've seen many of your posts.  I've been wondering why you
are trying to bring the very attitudes we are fighting into women's space.
While men are welcome on LinuxChix lists, this is primarily intended as
woman/geek space, and you do not seem to respect that.

No, please give us a break.  I honestly don't think you intend to
communicate what you are conveying on this list.  I believe you are sincere,
and like many men (not all by any means), you are oblivious to what you are
communicating.

You wrote a bunch of posts in a short period of time, I assume in reaction
to what you read.  Try to reflect a little on what is behind these messages
before you click quickly on reply.  You are obviously open minded enough to
be here.  Try to understand *why* you are getting a lot of the reactions you
are getting.  I suspect then that we'll start talking to each other and stop
talking at each other.  That is the crux of the problem in most debates on
sexism, IMHO.
