The moderator Bruce Moreland emailed me that the complaint made previously of
Gender Specific Abuse was not "meant" to be Gender Specific. I have emailed my
disagreement to Bruce Moreland.

The comment above adds fuel to the fire. "know your sensibilities better"
adressed to a female personage is an example in which reasonable persons will
recognise the clear sexual content.

I arrive for the first time in a female-free hierarchical system and am
subjected to 'joke' abuse from 'clever' males.

Horrified.
