I tried to abolish the position of womens officer at my university, then
decided against and created a mens officer instead. It was the
realisation that the largest body of unrepresented people at the uni
where the straight, white, able bodied, men (SWAM). So we got them
representation.

I also pissed off most of NUS by doing this. I also tried to get
straight people allowed to NUS LGB campaign, which went down like a lead
parachute.

Anyway, this is going waaaaaaaaay off topic on the geek front.

So don't top post :p
