Arghh.  This newsgroup was created for the discussion of topics related
to women and women's issues, right?  Yet close to half of the notes posted
(as I write this) deal with whether net.men should be created???

Either there aren't enough women's issues to be discussed, or this
net.men/net.women.only discussion is stifling other topics.

For the record, I don't mind if net.men gets created.  If nobody posts
anything to it, it can die a natural death.  As far as keeping men out
of net.women.only (and issues like circumcision), there isn't anybody
to police that.  I also think net.women is a great place to discuss
topics like the ERA, especially if Phyllis Schafly is on the net -
then you'd see sparks fly!

It just appears that this net.men debate could go on forever.  Doesn't
this debate belong in net.news.groups anyway??
