    1. The thing about "getting men involved" is sometimes the ones you get are the ones you least want.

    E.g men who show up to hit on women, especially university women. Men with poor boundaries who just want to be told how awesome they are.

      One of my friends told me her manager (terrible) ranted at her for their entire 1:1 about why he wasn't invited to a teach diversity course.

        I think he's more qualified to teach a gas lighting and homogeneity course.

          Anyway! If you are going to have men thought-leader in diversity+inclusion be careful of who they are. The good ones hesitate and clarify.

            I've had this convo w/ number of men I think are GREAT lately. They have specific concerns, are respectful of space, don't want to fuck up.

              Guys who say "hell yeah let me educate you on this topic" well I think you should be wary. I am.
