    Just crap from an anonymous idiot who is destined for a series of unhappy marriages. I hope he goes through life losing one promotion after another to a woman. It would be just. Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped. - Elbert Hubbard

      Exactly. The guy was bored and posted a stupid little troll. What amazes me is that so many people hooked up.

        I don't think the females have a lesser ability to program at all. I think the current situation (there are more male coders) depends more on cultural behavior. Women were taught to do female things and men were taught to do male things as kids. When I was a teacher at a university, I got this confirmed in the computer labs. The women wanted to program, but they were always scuffed away by more dominating males. Sad but true. However, I think this cultural "women do female stuff, and men do male stuff" is about to change (probably already has). But I would never date, move in with, marry, etc, a programmer. I would hate the boring conversations. I want .NET et al to stay out of my personal life. Getting together with a programmer would not help at all. :) -- In the land of the blind, be king!

          Imagine what torture it is for a sexist to take commands from a woman who is clearly smarter than him!

          Hmm.. I thought I was a sexist, but it appears I'm not. I just like sex very much. What's the word for that? :rolleyes: -- In the land of the blind, be king! Some day, Dominion, some say prayers, now I say mine.

                  Since the article path was deleted by the admin, I can only discuss this topic based on the subject line. So -- I think that both men and women have a brain to program. The problem is finding just the right amount of voltage to insert into the nuecliae of the neuron transmitters to sufficiently change the existing program without leaving your subject unresponsive. In the event of an unresponsive subject, well that is the equivalent of putting your system in an infinite loop without an 'off' button. _____________________________________________ The world is a dangerous place.
