Seek help please...

@webmind He may not be the only one AND that is why we need safe spaces and talk about consent and have no gods and no masters...

@gaba

No gods, no masters, no facebook

And yes clear and honest communication, places where that is possible

@webmind I'm mostly referencing to "hacker spaces" and how to bring the conversation there. Referencing to our discussion back in July...

@gaba

ah, I recall yes.

@webmind So if an "agreement" on what is expected of the space and how to frame consent in it is not the answer how do you think we should bring the discussion to this spaces?

@gaba

The main things are deciding what you find important as a community, what you consider normal/expected. And then how to deal with divergences. You want to avoid dealing with strict general rules though, as that agitates and becomes inflexible while you end up dealing lots of unique cases.

This is perhaps a bit vague, but I would like to work this out more with others.

@webmind Yes! Agree! The detail there is "avoid dealing with strict general rules". The community/space needs to have a clear idea of what they want to be able to setup this framework on what we expect from it.
