Would you be interested in having regular “Woman Oriented” threads (such as this one)? If so, how often? I’ll set a range from once per month, to once per year.
(My experience is that every time a rationalist gathering becomes at least 50% female, conversation inevitably turns to Optimal Bras (braspace is large, and the optimal choice is highly situational.) or BC.)

Oh please no! Don’t institutionalize gender drama. Women may make use of the fact that they also happen to be real people and write what they want to say in the “open thread” that is already created once a month. If their sex happens for some reason to be relevant to what they wish to say they can make note of it in the comment in the same way that people can write about their nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation or hair colour.
I feel no need for women oriented threads, myself. However, I feel it’s really important to work out dating and gender ratio issues. We’ve needed an open line of communication about that for a long time. As far as timing is concerned, why make it scheduled? Say something good when you have something good to say.
Didn’t see this before, but I would like that. It looks like it’s not that popular from the upvotes to wedrifid’s comment below, but perhaps people wouldn’t have a problem with, e.g. once every six months?

Voted up because it was a reasonable question. I don’t think it needed to be voted down as though it was a campaign.
