Perhaps you didn't understand. I am not arguing that women are not under-represented on list-serves such as this, or in most institutions. Of course, you are right about that. I am talking about sexual dynamics, when I say that I find that many male US leftists are "scared shitless of women".
<<On the whole, men (in or out of left-wing institutions) still speak louder than they ought.>>
What do they do if they want to get laid? Would sign language be permissible? Or should they just wait until the woman makes the first move? :) I say that in jest, but I believe that is really a big question for the timid SNAG leftist.
