[sudo-discuss] Seattle's Feminist / Trans-positive Hackerspace

[Andrew]

 I really want to know more about what makes this space more "feminist,
woman-centered, and trans- and queer-inclusive" then any other space
specifically.

I know that most hacker spaces would love to be more inclusive in those
ways, but most of us know first hand that just declaring something an
inclusive or safe space doesn't make it one. I'd be curious to know how
specifically they are going about organizing around the idea of gender and
sexuality inclusiveness.
