MMM Can We Have A Mustachian Women Category Here?
« on: June 20, 2014, 12:06:20 PM »
Seems odd that there is no dedciated category for Mustachian Women.

Come on guys there are things we women would like a place to share about.

Have I missed something? There is NO dedicated Mustachian Women category.

Seems odd that there is no dedicated category for Mustachian Women and all you guys believe yourselves to be enlighten.

Really, guys there are things we Mustachian Women would like a place to share about.

Can I get some support here for a Mustachian Women category?

Ladies and Gents +1 if you agree

Can I get some support here for a Mustachian Women category? I am asking you first MMM. +1 if you agree

I'll add a minus 1. What do women need to talk about that men can't be a part of? Seems highly Unenlightened to want to exclude 50% of the human race from a discussion forum about early retirement and financial badassit.y

Use the thread on menstrual cups.  I don't think you'll get many men peeking in there.

Maybe you can explain what you're after?  I don't follow how separating the men from the women is enlightened? 
The purpose of this board is is to discuss frugal living, FI strategies, challenges, etc.  This applies to all equally regardless of gender, sexual preference, income, etc.

If there's some rational reason for segregation I'm missing...please enlighten me.

@Pex - You're right: there isn't. It's counter progressive.

Besides, we had a survey a few months ago and turns out the majority of us are female (can anyone find that? I seem to be search challenged ATM).

- 1 here as well. If one wishes to speak about female-specific topics that can easily be noted in the subject line. I don't post on here much but read just about everything and have no desire to exclude or be excluded.

I agree this is unenlightened!  Also, I feel having a dedicated category for real estate is exclusionary to those of us who aren't landlords!

No, seriously, though, this is just me personally but I don't find I have enough female-specific stuff that this would be helpful.  And it would be counter to the organization that I've seen the mods trying to create here; there seems to be a desire not to create endless subforums--that being why there's a recipe megathread, fitness megathread, etc., rather than separate categories.

I'll add my voice to the "why?" camp. I'm not sure what it would achieve.

I completely agree with the OP. It's only fair, since women get paid with WDollars, and can only invest in 401W and 403B programs, Woth WIRAs, and Wanguard total market funds.

MOD NOTE: Idea seems pretty unnecessary and almost universally rejected by the users.  Feel free to start women-centric threads, but don't be surprised if men chime in too, and vice-versa.  Locking thread.  Cheers!
