Re: Announcing KDE-Women!

Chill .. it doesn't do any harm. If segregation had been forced on them, then that would be something to get excited about. But that isn't the case. They have chosen to do something for themselves for their own benefit, and that is their right!

Many wars have been fought the world over for freedom of thought, speech and expression. For womens rights just as much as mens. It is not our place to criticise how someone else chooses to articulate this choice.

KDE Women is cool.

Bullarky.

It does do harm to separate people into arbitrary groups because it breeds envy and resentment. Why form a "women's" group unless to 'undo' some evil discrimination by men?

And what do you mean it is not our 'place' to criticise? There is also a message in the _means_ by which you convey your point, and I don't see how that should be exempt from critisism.
