Thanks @mnot. We will consider this. This section proved very challenging to write. I appreciate the suggestion.
I think this is a big improvement -- especially this part: "the following behaviours are presumed to be acceptable even if they make some participants uncomfortable".
However, I think this bullet is still problematic:
Note that claims of "reverse"-isms including "reverse racism," "reverse sexism," and "cisphobia" are not acceptable.
It's problematic because:
@dbooth-boston there's an open PR for this issue (PR #329 ), but the terms you mention do have linked definitions in the document.
@wareid AFAICT "reverse-ims", "reverse racism", etc. are not defined in the document.
The way this section is written is a bit confusing to me. Straw-man proposal (that I'm sure could be improved):
That should be just an editorial change. However, it might also be good to explain the points about tone and reverse-isms a bit more.
