[Noisebridge-discuss] Neutral Pronoun "E" Version 3

Correction,  my main objection was that Pigeon was 1.  He was asked to leave by Rayc two days before and not return before the next Tuesday meeting.  He did not honor that .  2.  When asked to leave again for that reason by a group of six or seven people he refused.  

Tom blocked my proposal to ban him for those reasons.

It was Pigeon who made me aware of the need for a different pronoun.  That was the original impetus for the use of E.

Danny, it sounds like you're saying Monad lobbied against Pigeon BECAUSE Pigeon preferred non-gender-specific pronouns. Do you really think so?


That would be like saying that the reason Danny O'Brien lobbied to shut down the kitchen (as you did at a meeting past), it was because Danny doesn't like people who use non-gender-specific pronouns.


I believe None of the above is the case. I believe we three are on the same page about this: our objection is to non-hackers using noisebridge as their personal kitchen.
