Ever notice that men outnumber women at Usenix by about 100 to 1? And
the ones I know find themselves being constantly hit on and harrassed by
the men.  So who knows? Let the women have a bof so they can talk about
whatever it may be that they find a need to talk about. Since you're
a bird of a different feather, I can't see how it could possibly affect
you.
