Proposal to explicitly ban sexism from the game room

The world has moved on, at least in its public spaces, but the Dope hasn’t moved on with it. Racist comments everywhere are excised. As are transphobic or gay-bashing comments. As are ageist or ableist comments. As are sexist or misogynistic comments. That’s the way of the world now.

Add bullying to the list also. That’s what the pitting of members is, especially the threads that go on for months at a time. The lack of action by the admins is shameful.

I’m fine with saying you can’t be a sexist on the SDMB, but this rather quickly illustrates how people can have dramatically different opinions of what “Sexist” means. Not in a million years would I have thought saying NBA players are better than WNBA players would be a sexist or offensive statement.

I don’t see it as sexist either. It’s the reason we have separate leagues for men and women in the first place.
