<DIV><FONT face=Arial>as to #3 <BR>I remember a event that it was announced that
the pool was closed at a certain time to men and it was a fairer gender swim
time only. The sew meeting was not a official SCA event and is in a privite
home so Federal rules on the ADA and Federal laws and regulations against
discrimination do not apply.</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial>
<DIV><BR>as to #2<BR>"Spelling-schmelling" get a life not all have had the luck
to get the same education and some have medical problems. On both cases like me,
my spelling and grammar S$#%. LOL</DIV>
<DIV><BR>as to #1<BR>She was being nice to invite anyone to come play not
begging for help to start a new group. Are you afraid that it will weaken your
pool of people to come see you?</FONT></DIV>

to #3...<BR><BR>We were simply looking for a nice day for ladies to get away and
work on things without distractions. We're INVITING ladies to come should
they wish, and as there will be some trying on, measuring and thus, thought it
wiser and more respectful to our husbands and boyfriends if we kept this event
for ladies, it's also in respect for the modesty of the ladies as they are
trying on garments and working on things. Please don't be offended...we'll
have PLEANTY of fully inclusive sewing circles...and other things as well.
Feeling that having equal access does NOT include gender specific situations
like CHANGING/FITTING (such as is this event) or Bathrooms. And I
Know a few husbands would be HIGHLY offended it we had NOT made this situation
for the ladies and explained that. This is not a regular, repeated,
event. It is just to get ready for protectorate. So, my beloved
Bjorn asks that you respect the ladies modesty and just chill, please.<BR><BR>We
do not expect Skorragardr memebers to do anything. We simply invite them
to come should they like to. That is all. Just as my husband and I
were able to attend and enjoyed the company of everyone at Woodlands last
week. But not everyone in this area can make it that far. This new
group is to provide oportunities for more play to even more people. Not to
take anything away from Skorragardr or Namron.<BR><BR>As to #1...I thought it
was nice for you to announce and invite...just as we announce and
invite...things that are going on that might appeal to members...I don't recall
responding in ANY WAY negative to ANY of your posts at ANY time. So I
don't understand the attack you made to mine except that perhaps you weren't in
a happy mood and we might have just been in the fall out zone. I hope
that's all it is...lol. <BR><BR>As to # 2.
<BR><BR>Spelling-schmelling! I've been told by MANY respected members of
the SCA that spelling is indeed a mundane or modern concept. Has anyone
read Chaucer lately? Sheesh! My feeling on spelling is that I do the
best I can...and I understand that I mangle other words from time to
time...Especially Viking...and I'm married to a viking... So my motto for
that is that I niether smell nor spell like a viking! (My viking finds it
amusing...and it is meant just that way...to be amusing)<BR><BR>So, in
conclusion....EVERYONE....let's quit bickering and picking and have fun!
The only time spelling truley matters is when filling out paperwork or in
advertising. What TRUELY matters is PEOPLE and their feelings. Let's
agree to respect each other's activities, input and love of the GAME (because
that is what this is...a game). Let's thank Caius for his invitation to
KAF, let's cut out the spelling police, the garb police, the grammar police,
let's quit knocking down other's attempts at inclusion and creativity, let's
quit, each and everone of us, acting like we know more than the next person
about everything, and lets start being better to one another!!!!<BR><BR>I, for
one, know that there are TONS I don't know about the SCA....I don't have to have
a 3rd party point out what I don't know on a public list, and neither does
anyone else. People that's just rude, and we shouldn't be rude to
one another, we should build one another up. if there's something you feel
a person should be corrected on, that CAN and SHOULD be done in a CONSTRUCTIVE
manner. <BR><BR>Thank you for your time, and I hope this is taken in the
positive and constructive manner in which it is intended.<BR><BR>In love and
service.<BR><BR>Sami</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
