Why do you think this has anything to do with Adria Richards? PyLadies was receiving donations well before any of that blew up.

If you want to argue that PyLadies is hurting women somehow then you are going to have to provide better evidence.

OK, my point wasn't that PyLadies was hurting women, quite the opposite. My point was that raising that amount of money shows the amount of collective guilt that the group felt towards this protected minority. Which is what caused the initial over-reaction that cost the dongle jokers their jobs.
