I agree that there should be more female input in this group, but
I'm sick to death of hearing about how "men are dominating net.women".
One gets a picture of a large group of hairy Neanderthal males
threatening to beat women with sticks every time they meekly begin
to reach towards their keyboards. No male has cancelled any article
from any woman on this group, and if women are intimidated by the
large number of men on the group (which I very much doubt), then
they deserve their fate for being so timid.

The simple fact is that there are a lot more men than women on the
net, and therefore most discussions will feature more men than women.
This is not a good thing, but it is a definite fact that no amount of
senseless kvetching will change.
