I personally believe that any organization (or its members) should not go out of its way to dispell stereotypes.
I believe the more you try to "say" that you don't fit a certain mold, the more credible the allegation becomes in the minds of those you are trying to convince.
The old saying; "Action speaks louder than words" rings true.
I believe that all organizations should first and foremost maintain a firm commitment to their principles and goals.
All members of BGLOs know (or should know) that stereotypes are just that, stereotypes. We are defined by who we are, not by what others think we are or should be.
