Re: [LAU] [Fwd: Re: Fuck your sexism]

Whatever I write would not be convincing. I am an asshole.
I accept that.

But! maybe the following argument would at
least open up your mind on sexism.

How did you come to linux? or hacking? or computer science?
How does one human being come to that? Is there a special
pattern?

My bet is: no. It's pure random. At point t in time you
don't care, at point t+dt you care and roll on.

If this is right, why don't we find 50% of female humans,
as in the general population?

So there is a problem. You don't see it because you are
males. All of you. No female friend to talk to you about
what she lives. Dig a bit on the web. Recently several
women in tech went public on how they are treated by
you, males.

That said, I already made my point, I won't pollute that
list further. I'll stick to technical stuff. There is no
point to fight with people who don't accept there is a problem.

Thanks to Bill Gribble for finding better words I'll ever can.
I doubt it will be useful though, but that's how desperate I am
when there are other human beings involved.

Happy music, happy hacking. And to hell with sexism.

And Hermann, don't take it personally. I used guitarix for
the guitar part.
Well, nobody take that personally. It's more a "group behavior"
that I see and you don't see because you're in it.
Okay, enough noise.
