*Throws up hands in frustration*

"Fandom is traditionally a female space" is not some secret code for "We think all men suck and don't want to invite them over to play."

I want to sit down every single person, whatever their gender, who has gone on and on about how OTW is "excluding men" and make them read cereta's essay on "Fandom and Male Privilege" until they get it.

(This post brought to you by one too many idiot rants and wanting an excuse to post a link to the above essay, which I think is worth all of your time.)

I saw that; it's been on my to-read list for awhile now. Thanks for the reminder! I'm sure I'll have plenty to say once I finally sit down and read it...
