Thank you. It's really common for the arrival of a women-only (or trans-only, survivors-only etc.) space to be met with alarm from men. On the surface, that's not even a bad reflex to have - identify things that seem exclusive, and try to make them more inclusive.

But what we don't always realize is that the internet isn't terribly inclusive in the first place. There's a prevailing atmosphere in well-populated tech spaces - Reddit, HN - that tends to shut down women's voices, especially if they're talking about an experience that men on the internet can't relate to.

I'm all for this project, hope it works out.
