[sudo-discuss] Re: [omni-consensus] PROPOSAL: BIPOC and Oppressed Gender Safe Space Committee (BOGSS)

This sounds like a noble cause, but it looks like it requires soooo much time, and a lot of talking. SudoRoom is different from many other organizations because we're very focused on enabling people to do stuff, especially getting men, women, trans, and small animals into a flow state of creation. I feel like the world needs more creating female hackers, and we need more safe spaces where women are not subconsciously instructed to teach kids or volunteer in social work. There are very few women I run into lately who are able to be fully creative in Oakland, it just feels like so many people are bogged down with caring for kids and husbands, or into social volunteer activities. That is really cool, but what about creating a "room of one's own" Virginia Woolf style? I can't see this committee helping in creating a safe space for women free of subliminal messages that they should be doing more community volunteering work, caring for me kids, and hacking to save the planet. Perhaps we could draw paper straws and elect a robot to attend? Hope this wasn't offensive, I'm just trying to think of a way to get more women to create and not be mired in stuff that doesn't help women do cool stuff! _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list -- sudo-discuss(a)sudoroom.org To unsubscribe send an email to sudo-discuss-leave(a)sudoroom.org More options at https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/
