In reply to Snoweider:
I had reply to the phrase '' making efforts to encourage women in the outdoors'' As, I see it that is a positive discriminatory comment.
I think the film its just a tongue in cheek light hatred poke at Him and Her, and the end has [out takes] that en-ply fun was had in the making- all be it from one side.
''Its about creating a website that feels welcoming for minority members of the climbing community.''
And why is this not doing that? I think it is and doing it well, highlighting the stereotypes, if of course He, She is not receptive then yes its on deaf ears.
If it makes just one person think , Oh, I see my self like that, then that's a out come, you, I, and 'every one and their dog' has seen the reluctant partner being put way, way outside of what is appropriate
But the Climbing community, has male and female, clubs, it has Homosexual and Heterosexual clubs, I am not awhere of clubs on Race, So if UKC and others feel the need to stop this being the case and level all out to one big mix so be it.
For my part I will take it as it comes, as things change all the time, its not a big issue.
However We ALL need to stop being so hyper hysterical about discrimination, we all do it, all the time.
ask. are you a member of a mountaineering club? And does that club have its membership open to all? BUT is open to all after a year of provisional membership? that allows time for the members to ------------------- discriminate?
ps. just wonder if the large numbers that have responded is because something uncomfortable in them has been woken?
