Whatever it is you're not doing that gets labelled stories put in the wrong category.
Look, either you're bothered by an impression you may be inadvertantly creating, or you're not. I understand if you don't much care, actually--there's only so much energy anyone can invest in any one fannish project. You're a volunteer and you may feel that you're doing all you can, or that you shouldn't have to worry about impressions that you don't think are fair, and I truly do not challenge that.
If you *do* care, though, what I am telling you is where that impression may be coming from (that and the tendency of anyone who's in a minority position--or thinks she *might* be in a minority position--to fancy herself persecuted). I'm actually not interested in debating with you how you might better run your own project. I'm sure you all know how to handle your own business better than I do. Take what I've said into consideration or not, as you prefer. If you're troubled by the idea that you might give the wrong impression, though, you might want to think how you guys might want to combat that in your own way. I just *happened* to post about this subject tangentially (the last time this happened to me was well over a month ago). I doubt everyone who's ever had a story miscategorized or who's seen a story miscategorized is reading this thread. Is it worth it to you, in terms of whatever the extra work would be, to try to avoid giving them the wrong idea? That's really up to you.
