Greetings... I'm going to go into lurk mode for awhile(I was planning
to lurk earlyer and let the thread I started die)... but before I do
I want to address this thread... since I some how find myself being
mentioned at the conclusion of each response..
"Unconscious assumption that women help and defer to men, perhaps?" Jen M.
I don't belive it is anyone's obligation to help another. Interms of
"deferment" I personaly find it easyer to take direction and fullfil the
wishes of women more then men.. especialy at work. I'm sure you guys will
have fun twisting this around in your own head to read it how you will...
anyways...
<note the obove was written before this section if things seem out of
order you now know why :)>
Hmmms... I feel so loved all of a sudden... (note I'm using digests so
quoting is not so easy :) There seems to be alot of misunderstandings
about my intentions of joining and speaking on this list:
Why I joined:
1. to find out what issues exists for women in the male dominated
technocracy, find out what I might be able to do about them, and offer
viewpoints that may not have been thought of before.
2. in some small way to keep tabs in an usual way with two of my niftiest
friends :)
3. and yes to test out issues with my bizzar project... btw it has never
been my intention to promote this project.. I have not at any point in
time give any form of refrence to it. Yes the project is (and has been)
rather stagnent.. however it's my fault and I do have plenty of intrested
people. I appoligize for bringing it up since it seems to be quite off
topic, I should have followed threads better before I posted...
4. to talk about prejiduce(sic)... ie. how it is that I know many talented
geek chicks but still subconciously assume with I meet a female that they
don't know... or why when I guy tells me they know things I assume they
don't (though I already know why on that one :) )
peace be with you,
btw if you have a response to this please do so in personal email unless
it directly pertains to the list... I don't belive that *I* am a linuxgrrl
issue... if you feel I should never post here again... again let me
know in email. :),
