This could be a marketing opportunity for BCNA that would have national appeal.
I'll take a blind guess that they have already spent a shit load of money prepping for a launch of the new Pink Lady rebranding but there is nothing like a graceful reversal of policy in response to community feedback if you want publicity.
I'll bet that the interest in changing the name of a magazine would be of, meh, interest to the media. Not changing it because the female online contributors got their hackles up in support of their male counterparts would get them interviews with all the national media. It would be a feel good story that could generate tremendous support.

The pink lady is a terrific initiative, imagine if 'she' was wearing blue shorts and rainbow socks.
I really hope they haven't changed it to pink lady in order to get publicity if/when we get upset about it. Deliberately upsetting the people they help for publicity would be a huge breach of trust. I hope its an innocent mistake.
