This is a video about how to make the Atheist community more inclusive, add your ideas below.
I think this article gets more to the point.

"Why women avoid the atheist movement"???????
Seems drumpy-ish, state falsehoods/odd generalizations AS IF they were facts & proceed
Get to the point, dude! Two and a half-minutes in, and he STILL has not said a single reason why there aren't many women in the atheist movement.
What atheist movement?
I'm not willing to watch him hem and haw, beating around the bush.
My ex-husband thinks out loud. Terry rambles for 20-30 minutes, going in circles. "Get to the point," I thought wearily. Because he's a teacher, I learned to raise my hand. Immediately Terry shut up.
"What I hear you saying is this," I said, summarizing in one or two sentences. "Exactly!" Terry enthused. He loves talking about himself.
I realized I wasn't willing to put up with this for life. Terry's verbal diarrhea got worse as he got older, as I predicted.
I have been an atheist all my life but never have been part of a movement. It is such a personal discovery and decision, that I do not see the need to meet with others and talk about it. This forum is as much "joining the movement" as I see necessary in my life. Any idea of a supernatural being is like a greyscale in my mind, undefined and unchanging. And all the history of religion is and continues to be the doings of men ( and yes, I mean the males in society) It is fascinating to study but I will not waste one minute of this short life of fighting it. It will disappear on its own when the needs of survival start pressing harder on people and the omnipotence of any supernatural being is revealed as nonsense.
Being sexist to the extent that your behaviour leads to criminal allegations isn’t related to atheism as far as I’m concerned. Belief or non belief in a deity isn’t really relevant to sexual assault. Plenty of Religious people fail in their religious values and commit crimes, it seems to happen across the board.
As for the Atheism movement? I’ve been to plenty rallies in my time, but none for Atheism.
@OwlInASack I wonder what’s brought that about? A strange phenomenon if true. (It would be nice if we all behaved better I guess).
The majority of folks in jail claim some sort of religion or another, so perhaps religion makes them criminals?
I’m scared to watch.. guessing he’s as bad as a white supremacy women walk behind me....
i don’t know if i have much to add, but mr atheist is the best. this video was really disturbing to watch. on one hand, i want to laugh at this guy who can’t even put together a coherent thought, but it’s so disgusting. this “anti sjw” bullshit is the reason i avoided the atheist community for so long.
