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:SarahtheBoring wrote: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.

I once pulled off a female identity over the Internet...no one was the wiser until I revealed what was going on.
Here's a commen quote -
"Lesbian 1" (Guy about 43 in his basement): WHO WANTS TO CYBER!
"Lesbian 2" (Guy about 32 in a basement): I WANT TO
"Lesbian 3" (Guy about 12 in his basement): You're both guys, I'm a real lesbian.
Don't ask how I know >>
"hey... no"

No, it was selphierulez12. I really hate that I put how much I love some video game girl into my username/email. The email thing haunts me to this day.Castor Troy wrote:Was your name some variant of Kerrigan?Pyle wrote:I tried it on Starcraft one time. It worked. Too well.
