In reply to the discussion: Our side needs to attack "bro culture" [View all]MuseRider

That is a current helpful thought?
Did you really think I needed to hear that we are not at fault or had not noticed the Alpha males all over the place. I was trying to help by revisiting some of what we did because we obviously did not finish it out or we let it slide. We must take care of this and I do not believe that introspection is a bad place to start. It may not work but many ideas might not work but it will take us all. Our herstory is deep and should be a good place to compare strategies. I hardly think any of us here needs educating about this problem so lets start pretending we all have experiences that can help us all along.
