I don`t believe it happened!!  After some discussions in
net.women about creating a .only for women, somebody
actually created the dumb thing!  OK, let`s create a
net.men.only, a net.teenagers.only, etc.  Tell me that
this was really necessary.  Talk about discriminatory
tactics!  I want to know who is responsible for this
newsgroup creation so that that person can be criticized
by name.  Is there no control over newsgroup creation?
There`s no way you can prevent a male from reading women.only,
and there no way you can do the reverse.  Let`s nip
this pracitce in the bud, or we`ll have newsgroups for
such things as net.politics.democrats.pro-glenn.male.employed
before too long.

Boy, that felt good!
