Okay so I'm instantly biased given that this is my daughter, but I think that this is what our community should be about. A young person following her dreams and trying to build something, and put it out there for all to see.

The problem is that it won't be about that unless we actively make it a place where she is welcomed and treated as a peer when she grows up and not just while she's young, unthreatening and not yet objectified.
