Why is this Forum in the Culture, along with books and sports?
Are Women's Rights a sport? No more important than that?

Can we request that it be moved under the Issues group of Forums?? along with Civil Rights, Justice, Race/Equality and such?

I mean, isn't the categorization of putting it in culture itself SEXIST???? This ain't no homemaking forum, fer pete's sake.

Who else would like to see it in a more appropriate place?

1. I see it in issues -- alphabetically last, so it's right before "Culture" but not in it.
:shrug:

There is a separate Women's World group, in Lifestyle, Peer and Self-Help but given the group's mission, it makes sense.

3. That's a glitch. Here, let me show you.

Look where it is listed on this page:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=204

It's under Issue Forums.

My guess is that when we moved the Labor forum up to the Issue Forums section, for some reason the listing of the women's rights forum on the Lobby got bumped down a spot. Note, also, that it is not in alphabetical order at the top of "Culture Forums" but it is in alphabetical order in its placement under "Issue Forums."
