Of course I agree, but as stated earlier my worry is that groups formed along the lines of gender, colour, or creed, excludes and alienates people, for instance a black lesbian blind charity. As daft as it sounds, very similar groups to that do actually exist.

Like I said, it's nothing personal, and I wish you luck with the events. My ctiticisms would also, and have, been voiced, about other exclusive and separatist organisations. Gay ones being my particular bug bear. I totally believe that integration is the way forward for everyone.
