how inclusive is a human rights activism group that excludes cis men, and only includes "girls, gays and theys"?
i understand the need for a "safe space", but such spaces can only be built when everyone learns to coexist... can we ever learn to coexist if we don't engage with those we are "wary" of?
i think it is realistic to include the almost other half of the world in conversations of rights and activism, we're all human. exclusion limits our understanding of each other, thus exclusion divides and deters.
i saw a video on how countries that fail women fail. imagine if it was the other way around. failing half of the world’s population means slowing progress at twice the normal rate. separating knowledge from people makes no sense...
whatever identity, everyone should be invited to conversate on increasing human rights.
