Perceptions of equity in sff

[RX-79G]

One where there isn't an assumption that blokes read sf or that women just go along to the latest Star Wars film because they fancied popcorn, or were brought along, rather than that 41% of the audience were as likely to want to be there as the other 59%. (Personally I pop along for the space pilots.)

When Dave asked you to drop the attacks from the Movie thread or be banned, does that somehow not apply to you?

This place is seriously lacking in personal courtesy.

Where are you reading these reviews? In hundreds of reviews I have one that mentions me being a female. Do you have a source or evidence for how prevalent such reviews might be?

Do you mean a study or infographic? No.

But I quoted a number of them in my first post in this thread a month ago.

Is this a universal thing? No.
Is it something I've noticed more than a few times as a "male reader" that Teresa asked advice from? Yes.

You seem to be labouring under the delusion that Dave's comment did not, and does not, apply to you.

It did and does.


Please act accordingly.

When I asked for this to remain civil I meant it thread locked

Well, sorry to drop out of the discussion everyone, but being in a different time zone I have just spend a large amount of time in what should have been the middle of my work day talking about this. Now I have to be good and go away and try to catch up on what I should have been doing instead.
