Beria, to be part of this list no one has to be an "ass-kisser," but
we do have to be civil and respectful of each other's (reasonable)
positions.
Given that the list exists to discuss why women might feel
uncomfortable editing Wikipedia, or posting to its other mailing
lists, it would be unfortunate if the same atmosphere were to be
transported to this list too.
The onus is on every subscriber to try to make sure this is a place
women feel comfortable. Maybe that's an unrealistic goal on a public
mailing list, but we can definitely try.
