It is mine. It's weird to see the same arguments played out again here. I think the default position with dominant groups is to like the familiar, the very familiar.

I have heard the theory that women are more selective about what they send. We didn't go out and actively solicit or accept more women. I have always accepted women into my life and preferred them in general. @ Joseph: chicks just started sending us poems. I have heard the theory that women are more selective about what they send.

Good writing = good journal = satisfied readers who will read future issues. writers choose where to submit. unless a journal is specifically limited to those of one gender, i'll submit if i like it; i'll likewise accept the best work, regardless. yes, i hoped for a mix approaching equality, and that's what we got. if it weren't, we'd have published a gender-skewed issue of awesome writing and that's how we'll continue to operate. call me naive. call me a liar. call me sexist/racist/ethnically-biased (as i feel the same about race and ethnicity). just don't send me crap. i just published the first issue of corium and have to agree with the editors here who rely on quality of writing when deciding what to publish. seriously — you’re going to pass up what you consider the best stuff because you have too many stories by writers who possess the same genitalia? frankly, i’m surprised that this topic has generated so much controversy.
