This doesn't offend me, as it had literally nothing to do with me and I am not in the habit of being offended in any case. I refuse to accept responsibility for being "the problem" just because you want to federate your annoyance.
- bdotdub 11y agoIt should offend you because that statement is suggesting that your utility and your worth is merely a function of your gender, not because of your skill. That the only value a woman brings in this case is "fundraising as well as getting authenticity with parents" - not their skill or any perspective that you wouldn't have. It is this kind of "not my fault" attitude that slows down progress in gender equality.
