We talked about this wrt our internal hiring statistics at work and I defended it because it is specifically measuring against the industry standard, and that’s the signal we want to measure.

But outside of that target/goal driven data collection I don’t want those distinctions anywhere, and I especially don’t want them at events I attend.

I've seen a couple spaces listed as explicitly Women/Non-binary and I think if there's space it's a good solution.

That’s close to what I use when I host events (I host events for “enbies and queer women”).

agreed, but there's also good reasons for that. women and non-binary folks are both groups that experience oppression along the axis of gender. lumping women and non-binary people into a "non-men" category isn't /always/ useful, but there's some utility to be had there.

i'm not a fan of this partly because i feel like it excludes trans men from a lot of places where they might've previously found community :(

Do you have an alternative in mind that's not easily misinterpreted as including men?
