Some times "the topic of interest to men" is a discussion about prevailing culture. The prevailing culture we have in common is... DU.

Personally, I share the need to elevate the level of discussion and reduce the tribalism througout DU. But, I don't feel all that responsible and concerned for the tone of Meta. Skinner & co made it only available to registered users for a good reason - it's a pressure release valve.

Better to implement "meta rules"; What happens in meta, stays in meta.

My two cents.

Warren did a great thing here.
