The Loose Association of Wargamers

I think mine is more of an honorary title; plus I think the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion director wanted some input......

One of my questions to my new (California based) employer was whether they would be comfortable working with an older white heterosexual male. They looked startled and said they had never been asked that before.

You may have started a trend.....
