Yes indeed Andrew, quite so.
But this list is not run by women or "a" woman, and there are few women left 
on it as well. Thus, the aspect of gender behavior you refer to is not 
relevant to my crit of this list's general tone nor to my call for civility 
as a more productive and peaceful Style.
I was not addressing feminism per se, so why drag it in now? Unless you are 
fixin' to change the thread. Right?
