This is the response I sent to the chair of the stewardship organization after receiving the email detailed in my last post.
A few things to note:
-
I understand why someone might be more comfortable having a woman watching their children than a man, and can agree that it’s awful that as a society we have to be so afraid of leaving children with men. That is not what this is about.
-
I don’t have any children, and usually have a hard time relating to them. Kids just aren’t really my thing. The men on the board have never experienced me interacting with kids.
-
This is a volunteer role that I took on in hopes of contributing positively to my community. I do not get paid, and stand to lose nothing by posting these emails (other than getting booted off the board, therefore being set free of its grim misogynistic culture).
-
The date in question is a Wednesday. I would have to take time off of work to “look after” these kids.
