    It's not. But since programmers are something like 90% men*, it often feels that way. * I mean 90%** of programmers are men... Not that each programmer is only 90% male... That would be weird. ** It's probably closer to 95%, but I'm pulling numbers out of thin air anyway, so who cares?

    Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

      it isn't only meant for males, however it is aimed at an industry that is 90% male so is it surprising that has a masculine slant inclination (oops a Clarkson moment)

            Women are certainly welcome at the Code Project but they are excluded from The Lounge. The Lounge is an area reserved for gay men. BTW, let me be the first to say that those jeans fit you really well. :laugh:

                Seeing the responses women get when then try to join in, no wonder there are no more women on CodeProject.

                I'd rather be phishing!

                        There are plenty of women on CP, you have to uncheck the "I only want to see posts from males" checkbox in your profile. :)

                        Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead? Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

                            IT is male dominated. If you want to see more chicks, go to a mall. Problem solved.

                              It's not.  You probably feel that way because women are currently underrepresented[^] in the fields of software and hardware engineering. /ravi

                                    I don't agree, females would be allowed on Code Project, but they're not good at Google. So they don't try to find out articles on their own. For example, a friend female programmer of mine tries to ask me to help her in coding. She don't come to Code Project at any cost. http://s17.postimg.org/3ls1vembj/Screenshot_133.png[^] Have a look at the image! -_- They're more frank with the male programmers, they're lazy, that's why you don't find there here. They just like to chit chat, and no to-the-point stuff! Favourite line: Throw me to them wolves and close the gate up. I am afraid of what will happen to them wolves - Eminem ~! Firewall !~
