That one elicited about the loudest flamefest I've ever seen, in
discuss@tldp.org. If you can find that thread in their archives, and
stand to wade through it all, you might find your answers there.
I think (eg.) "Networking For Women" workshops are demeaning and
insulting to women. "What, you don't think I could handle a real
networking course?!? Pig!" The women I hang with agree. When I say
something about it on-line, I'm roundly condemned for it from all
sides.
Sometimes, I think the race just doesn't want to grow out of its often
stupid ways.
