Well, I don't meet many people of either sex yet I've found it much easier
to get across the exhilarating voluntary-for-the-love-of-it aspect to
women than to men.
YMMV, I guess.

Yes, it's socially accepted (especially for women) if you voluntarily
work for your church or the hospital or some similar charity. Now, if we
told women, that we voluntarily work for the "Church of Emacs", might
that work? Would they believe that this is charity?
