What context did I omit that you think justifies the comments that I did quote? What possible context was there that supports Carla's claim that she was responding to obnoxious attitudes in a non-sexist, topic-neutral way? Being "calm" does nothing to address the inappropriate behavior that I saw in my scrollback when my attention was called to it. Or does the group encourage a double-standard, and inappropriate behavior is only called out when it's perpetrated by men? I am not defending everything that Manoj said in that discussion; he's very good at being a party to turning discussions in the most inflammatory direction possible. But it takes *two* sides to escalate. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
