I think I know what your getting at there is you want to elaborate?

For me as a diversity and human rights activist it's about an equal playing field and for me that's something worth fighting and dying for...

I think as a group or community you always need to understand differences so it's about acknowledging and having a sensible debate together and also realising you might not change anyone's opinion and that's ok.

But we should never seek to force put down or oppress people as that's when you are no better then the facisim you want to end?

So I think I agree with you? If I am interpreting you correctly?

So you can have your booth babes but a high number of women won't be at your conferences and you will sending a message to young girls sorry in IT your still seen as a joke!

That kind of superficial lust can snowball into worse things like prostitution, sexual slaver, child marriages, etc... It's like the symptom of a deeper sickness. However, when you start down that path of dictating how a person should live, or act, or dress, or what kind of personality they should have, it becomes a slippery slope. It becomes a new disease. The whole reason we are all anti-establishment in the first place. If you infringe on another's right to be free and express themselves in any way that makes them happy, you become the oppressor.
