I disagree with your logic here, Francesca: We do *not* need to list a certain kind of diversity just because someone identifies with it. Some - like Charles above - suggest to only list scientific kinds of diversity. I favor what others have suggested: Completely avoid listing specific kinds of diversities to avoid misinterpretation that we _favor_ being non-diversive in certain ways. I don't mind listing some - but I fear the bikeshedding of which that should then be. You have "neurotype" as a favorite. I can imagine many having various favorites ;-) Or do you mean to say that "neurotype" is a diversity kind which is somehow superior to others, so makes sense to include even if avoiding other kinds?
