How can women disrupt male speech domination? (the sequel)

[anon37332521]

I just posted in meta to see if the original thread could be reopened:

How Long is "Temporarily Closed" Closed

We had a admin cleanup on aisle 9 earlier, and everything was handled quickly. Unfortunately, the thread has remained closed. @codinghorror, @Falcor : Is there a standard amount of time we have to wait for a thread to reopen if there are flagged messages in a discussion? Is it possible for an administrator to reopen a thread after the offending comments have been cleared, or is this strictly time based?

ETA: @ChickieD, @IronEdithKidd @Mindysan33 , @Missy_Pants I think if any or all of you wanted to come in and disrupt this conversation, the rest of us here would likely appreciate that too.
