Actually, this is rather pointing out that you don't know what Barbelith is, Epop. Most of us aren't magicians. This may explain, incidentally, why your Abyss-crossing narrative has been in some quarters received as the fantasies of a bumgunger, rather than the revealed truth of one of the most useful people on this rock.
As such, I fear we must be lamentably ignorant of how gender works on a magical level. However, we may be able to supplement that magical understanding with some idea of how gender works for those with some grasp on reality, or experience of relationships with women not based on the role of saviour.
Despite claiming to have changeed the world as an engineer or scientist, you appear to have no accredited scientific or engineering education, and no real concept of how the scientific method works. Faced with people who see your self-aggrandisement as precisely that - and remember that we still have absolutely no evidence, beyond the endorsement of a personal friend, who himself refused to get involved with your gender oddity or actually say that these world-changing solutions were actually changing the world (the best he could manage was that he hoped that they would be taken up by others, I believe), that any of your claims are in any way relatable to improving the world in a sense of "improve" comprehensible to we non-magical types - you have little recourse but to ever greater levels of bombast. You try to bait women with little-boy nonsense about "chicks", and then complain of political correctness - which, as has been mentioned, is Barbelith talk for "I have no real understanding of how the world works".
If you are actually doing some good in the world, then that is lovely, and if you have grown from traumatic experiences to be somebody who can contribute something of worth to the world, that is terrific. Well done you. However, I have gone over the course of this thread from thinking that it was an unnecessary and hasty action to thinking that we need to change the name of the board, so that people stop thinking that it will provide a custom-built fan club, and then getting upset and weird when it does not, leading to these deeply depressing and upsetting experiences.
The stresses of being the subject of a banning thread may provide some explanation of the specific turns this has taken, but, really, if this is your idea of interacting with other people then I fear the grand projects are unlikely to reach the papers, and you are unlikely to be treated as anything other than a reactionary and obstructive fantasist on Barbelith. Given the very many attempts to reach out to you in this thread, which have been systematically ignored, rejected or used as the springboard for another peroration on how great you are, I am wondering if you have any means of bringing value to Barbelith, or Barbelith any means of bringing value to you.
So, if you have decided that we are pathetic, politically correct and just not up to speed on the latest magical innovations in gender, I can only sympathise with your misunderstanding of what this place is. This was not the Magickal School of Grant Morrison, and is not in need of a new saviour now that he has started working with Geoff Johns.
