It is not ´careless words´ that caused this. After all, everyone is entitled to express their opinion.
What really caused this is the climate where it is ok for women to meet without the least danger of being accused of sexism. It is the climate where it is ok for blacks to meet without any danger of being accused of racism. It is the climate where it is VERBOTEN for white guys to meet, even if the topic is something totally neutral like Ruby and the attendance is self-selected.
- luigi 14y agoPlease tell me more about how awful it is to be a white guy in Western society.
- SagelyGuru 14y agoTo all of you trying to justify this, I only have this to say. I am sorry to have to repeat the obvious but it is true and it needs to be said. The best test for injustice in all these situations, if you are unable to see it staring in your face, is just to turn it round. Imagine the best rubyists just happened to be all black and their conference was cancelled because they were all black. If you still think it was justified, I have nothing more to say except: `Please, beam me up, Scotty!'

- oh_sigh 14y agoEvery group is concerned about their own problems. You can say the same thing to women who are fighting for gender rights "Well, you have it great, think of how bad black people have it. You have no right to complain."
