ladies! many of you know of sarah haskins, she's just joined this community as of yesterday, there's an ask-me-anything thread over there about the eagleman race she just won. there's a little intro from me in that thread.
what i intend, and expect, is to have some of these ask me anything threads over here in the womens. that's coming. there is a *little* blowback from that idea, from those who think that a truly gender-blind approach is antithetical to the ask-me-anything threads bifurcated by gender, parceled out into gender-specific forums.
still, the idea of the women's forum has always been to talk about issues and challenges specific to women, i.e., men and women are equal, but they aren't identical.
in fact, sarah gave birth somewhere around july of 2013, and she recommenced bogarting the top spot on the podium by 2014. i'm sure there are all kinds of questions that men cannot relate to that one might want to ask somebody like sarah: her pregnancy, her recovery from pregnancy, her daily routine as a mother and so forth.
so, we will have some of these threads in the womens, i just don't know exactly when. some of the women pros read the interview with sara gross and me, and the thread on the main forum discussing that interview, and have decided it's time to start to talk to folks here on this forum. i'll be asking some of these top-performing ladies to post here, for the benefit of those reading this specific forum.
in the meantime, sarah's on the other side, over there, i suspect she might post some interesting stuff.
