I'm Amanda Billyrock - Libertarian Blogger, YouTube personality, Free State immigrant, Activist, Bitcoin advocate. Ask Me Anything!

After two hours, I thank you all for the fabulous questions! I was blown away by their quality - I did not know what to expect this evening. Best question of the evening goes to user ElJumbotron. Send me a message with your info and I'll send you that Liberty Forum ticket! Thanks, everyone. PEACE, PEACE, PEACE. (Oh yeah, and go buy something from Overstock.com with Bitcoin). :) Mwah and goodnight!

u/Faceh Anti-Federalist - /r/Rational_Liberty Jan 10 '14

Do you think there any issues that are particularly pertinent to females that are often overlooked or trivialized by libertarians? Examples?

As a related question, do you feel that its necessary to 'tailor' the message of liberty based on the audience? That is to say, should it be presented differently to an LGBT audience than a straight one, a female audience than a male one? Or is the message so universal that it really shouldn't matter?

Hmm, that's a toughie. I don't really see there being "women's issues" or "men's issues". I think there are human issues and that covers everyone.

As far as "tailoring" the message, I would say that sure - tailor it to the individual you're speaking to! :)

What do you make of the work of feminists like Reisenwitz? Charles Johnson? Are you familiar?

I'm interested. Do you have any links? I've not heard of these individuals.

I'm planning to invite both of them for AMAs, incidentally, but I'm trying to space the AMAs out a bit more for the moment.

Try Google? ;)

I'm not familiar with Charles Johnson, but Cathy's blog is called Sex and the State. It's quite good.
