Yes, trythil, I was joking. That's what the little emoticon was meant to signify.

Just making sure. Like gender identity, humor and sarcasm aren't always easily discernible from text, even with icons.

I tried it on Starcraft one time. It worked. Too well. So well, that StevenDOAA7 said that he thought he was in love with me. After trying, and failing, to clean this mess up, I logged off and never got on again.

Was your name some variant of Kerrigan? :P

I know my friend went nuts over anyone who had a Kerrigan name...

Just to explain it in small words: The idea is that there aren't many female creators, so they'd want to highlight their work because it's a little unusual. Something like that. It's because it's rare, not because it's better, those of you whining about sexism and "what if they did an all-male one" blah blah. There are plenty of all-male MEPs already, just because most editors are male.

That said.

I don't know that it's as rare as people make it out to be. Seriously. Yeah, there are still more male editors than female, but there has to be at least 30% female editors here, if not more. I've been in online forums where I was, literally, one of two or three girls around. This is really not that bad.

It would be interesting as far as any other MEP is interesting. I like to see the themes people come up with for these, and that's a little more unique than "let's all use the same band w00t." (...not that there's anything wrong with those. *cough* ;))

I think the best thing to do is just edit, and not make a federal case out of being a girl OMG WOW HOW UNUSUAL. That's how anything is made mainstream - do your thing and don't freak out about how unique you are. Your work will speak for itself and that's that.

Im pretty sure nobody is whining about sexism... I assume that that comment is directed mostly at me and I would just like to point out that:
