I would prefer a list dedicated to discuss gender bias by careful people 
(just kick out the trolls or invite only caring people), to a list 
dedicated to discuss anything, from female gender only.

But then, it is very much to the editors who feel very strongly a 
specific need. Whether the need is to discuss gender issues, or whether 
the need is to discuss between girls. Both are fine to me, but show 
different needs.

OH, by the way. During my trip to Florida, I discovered an author I 
never had the chance to read before. Amélie Nothomb. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amélie_Nothomb

I read both Fear and Trembling and Métaphysique des tubes.
I do not know what Fear and Trembling is worth in english language, but 
the book is really worth reading for gender issues and cultural 
diversity. Rare moment.
