Yeah I never made it over there, too many hurdles. Yes a secret code is just too juvenile for me, sorry. I didn't agree with hardcore feminists all the time before this all started and I'm not about to now. My point is we need places for everyone to be able to discuss freely. I don't want my own echo chamber and that's pretty much what I expected. best Marty Crane impression I can manage

I am also against echo chambers (and I am NOT accusing OVARIT of being an echo chamber - I am VERY appreciative of OVARIT) and agree that free-wheeling discussion, especially if it deconstructs sacred cows, is the most productive.

However, I think that all women spaces should shut down ad hominem attacks, because those will just lead to the women's movement eating itself. Deconstruct what is being said, rather than personally attack the speaker.
