@Darkpoet,
Without mention of what? might one ask; be it women?
Without notice of whom? should one question; is it a given?
But must there be a divide? one may wonder; such as a gender?
And why press? another will charge; the other's surrender?
From the heart of Japan, the land of fading memories of a more youth filled day, I send you my greetings along with big WELCOME to philform !

Yes, while understanding the notion, I yet feel concerned enough to mention that the style is under change, and has quite faded into non-use itself. Be it for good, or for bad (while I say whole-hearted, '
for good!'), even the style such as 'mankind' is better represented by 'humankind.'
I hope you have a great time here, and enjoy to the max !! KJ
