I grew up with inclusivity meaning to act and make public spaces inclusive for ppl with disabilities, with ramps, lifts and toilets prepared with equipment for their needs. Including women in political representation where black/brown men had already been included, or black/brown
..ppl where only white ppl were. Including poor kids in sports or computer literacy. Including vulnerable women, living in poverty, in health care that was available to wealthier women. Including ppl from impoverished areas in opportunities to access formal qualification.
Inclusivity meant that ppl who were disadvantaged by social class, by sex discrimination or racial discriminator would have a chance to live full lives, with appropriate shelter, health care, financial independence and dignity overall. Inclusivity that panders to the wishes of
Males over the needs of females is not inclusivity at all. It's males crossing females boundaries bc they feel they are entitled to. We say no. Our boundaries are ours to establish. We, women, say how close to us men should get. It's our bodies. We say no. This is final.
