There are no boys aloud

Not [i]allowing[/i] males is exclusivity based around a population we want to create a safe space for, not sexism. Sexism is oppression/discrimination by the privileged sex (men) against the non-privileged sex (women).
-
Sometimes the privileged sex is females
-
The only time in history where the women were the dominant sex was in Manchu China.
-
Women may exercise privilege based on some other aspect of their identity (say race or social class, for example) or because of positional power they hold within an organizational structure. However, they do not have that privilege solely [i]because[/i] they are female, as is the case for men in our society, and therefore that situational privilege does not begin to compare with the systematic oppression women face in our society as a whole.
-
Technically you are the privileged sex in this instance. You have the privilege to join this clan. Males do not.
-
Joining the group does not grant privilege. It allows access to other females.

It was a -blam!-ing joke

Don't quit your day job funny guy.

Edited by TnNikita: 3/17/2016 3:07:08 PMWhen you start trying to argue a technicality about the private right to create a space and set its admission criteria, you should probably think about whether you actually have a argument. Sexism is a societal structure of oppression, not a situational instance of exclusivity, and our [i]gaming[/i] clan is a situational instance of exclusivity. When folks encounter a space their privilege doesn't allow them to occupy, I understand they don't like it, but perhaps they should examine where that discomfort comes from instead of trying to devalue the community we've created here.

-blam!- you
-
We have (our) rights too you know.

It's like the Sahara over here.

Very well said. *crying laughing*
-
Not in this instance sir.
