<DISGUST>
I've been on the Net for years. While on the net, dragonchild has been male, female, human, fairy, and any number of other personae. I've been hit upon by gay and straight men and women. Very rarely have I ever had an angry reaction. Usually, it has been a reaction of "Oh, ok. So you're a insert gender here. Now, where were we?" This is the Net, for crying out loud. Gender is irrelevant. I was perfectly happy knowing that Abigail is an excellent coder, with an incisive wit and wonderful grammar. And, in fact, that's all I care to know. Whether or not Abigail is an 'innie' or an 'outie' doesn't change the fact that the code written is some of the best I've ever seen. This discussion is fruitless, baseless, groundless, and can only serve to hurt a very valued member of this community and disgust the rest of us. Quit posting on it! Please.
Believe me, I understand the desire to increase the percentage of female programmers, especially in the US. If that's the case, then discuss that. Discussing a monk in this public, and embarassing, a fashion is completely rude. In reply to Re: Omigawd! Surprised by Reality! (WHO CARES???)
