>> So what I'm Italian and I'm always the only Italian in the room, and so what? >> If in 2014 you are still feeling different for a __color__, I think the problem is more on you than others. The thing is.. you're right that it's fucking ridiculous that people are so judgmental and mean for a __color__, and that __they__ have a problem. But the fact that matters is that when you're the one being judged and mistreated every day, it doesn't really matter if they're right or not, it hurts and it's frustrating. >> Also, we want the same sex thing? What if we do Only Man Conferences? ? How much bad press will that get? That's a whole different subject. The point is, why would you do a man-only conference? Is it because you really care about having only men in there? Or because that's a way to (passive-aggressively) express your opinion against how stupid you think feminism is? >> I just see most of them just taking advantage of being a minority to complain when things gets wrong. I see what you mean, and maybe it's true in rare occasions. But more often than not, for someone to publicly talk about an issue, it's something important to them. Maybe not to you, but to them. As a stupid example, it really pisses me off when people are disturbing me when I try to hack. I lose all my productivity and I feel like I wasted my day. But for them, they don't care.. they don't understand, they're just chatting about the weather or whatever. Unless I take the time to explain to them why it bothers me, they won't get it. So, maybe when you see the other gender complaining you think they're annoying, or find excuses, or are abusing their minority. But in practice, I'd recommend paying close attention to what they say because it's not about what you think, it's about how you (or someone else) just hurt them without even knowing it. >> I never judged someone just from the color or for being a girl, gay or whatever could be. What if I told you that your post is extremely cruel for someone struggling with racial or gender harassment? >> I'm pretty sure that is the same for most of us. I wish.
