Hello, My on-wiki username is Eat me, I'm an azuki (formerly Eat me, I'm a red bean). My main wiki is enwiki, so you can contact me on my talk there (as opposed to, say, my talkpage on the Finnish Wikinews). I am this list's newest member. I wish to share my views about the gender gap issue on Wikimedia projects, but first I would like to know you all better. I hope that this list will generate a lot of interesting discussions that can help me gain some insight about this issue too. Yours, Eat me, I'm an azuki
Note, missed your first message so got wrong impression from what looked alike a comment "Eat me, I'm an azuki".
But online people often miss part of messages or misunderstand intentions...
Of course, you now feel a bit what it's like for someone to misinterpret what you write because of your sex. Here we've had some past harassment from guys, so without - or even with - context we may look at that phrase skeptically.
On Wikipedia where a number of guys just are annoyed at anything said by females, they also will be quick to misinterpret or think badly of anything written by women.
