NEW WIMMIN WHY?
One of the wimmin at the (LHD-in-wimmin-only-space) asked, can we limit our numbers to a certain amount? Because she said, every time there are new wimmin here it seems as though we have to start all over with what we already know so that the new wimmin who come get an idea of who we are and that takes time from us to talk more about what we are interested in. One other womon said she thought that would be very elitist, another womon said so? And i thought to myself o please don't let this end up being a discussion on elitism pleeeze. Another womon said she didn't think numbers was something we needed to concern ourselves with since there were only 15 of us at any given time there. Another womon said see could hear the seeds of ' we' and 'they' pushing up out of the grounds of a group mind. I said it was fine with me to have as few or as many wimmin in the space whenever and that to me the important thing was that we all got some chance to voice whats going on with us, on us, in us. Then after i said that i thought to myself what do you mean a chance to voice whats going on? i sure as hell don't want this space to turn into some sort of the-rapy session or sessions. I began to think why do we need to limit numbers? I mean what would happen? Would we have zillions of wimmin knocking the doors down to get in to talk about whatever? Would we have to hire a hall? Have a conference? Elect ossifurs? Collect dues? Create special interest groups? Have a convention? Elect members to political post? Organize rallies? Collect dues? Worry about the money and what to do with it, or who to give it to, and for what? What happened to Anarchy. New Wimmin humm.
