(24,721 posts)As a woman, I see through these current (& past) gripes of the day. It's an effort to exert their authority over DU -- if it's not obvious to you already, take a good look at the HoF members' way of communicating their wishes & compare it to your last paragraph. Along with their behavior, focusing on other DUers & deriding them for their personal perspectives rather than on what the Republicans are doing to women undermines their credibility.
Some men can't read women the way other women can, & that's why many women have spoken up against their pettiness. If you were defending their right to obsess over the Republicans' agenda for women, you'd have my support. What you're defending is a group that has earned a reputation for focusing on human behavior of other DUers, rude behavior, & a need to control others. It makes DU suck for me.
I'm so tired of the HoF's extremely rude way of doing business that I have hidden their forum & I have used the keyword auto-trash function for every buzz word I can think of that will prevent me from seeing their petty outrages of the day. I suggest others do the same thing.
