      Weird, you assume I’m a man.

      I am, but then again on the Internet I could be anyone I want to be. I could tell you I manage a software dev team that is majority female. What’s the point? I could also tell you I’m Ada fucking Lovelace risen from the crypt.

      Skill with a computer has nothing to do with sex or gender. It’s almost entirely down to experience and exposure at an age when you’re willing to break things and learn from it - or capturing that attitude at whatever age.

        God I can already tell this is going to be bad faith bullshit so i’m not even going to bother reading past this.

        When. When did I say that.

          Do you often accuse women of being dickheads who are part of misogyny? Or are you just using a pathetic excuse to pretend you didnt read the next paragraph? Grow up. It’s the Internet. Nobody is going to remember that you were silly.

            Just gonna say - they seem insufferable, so they probably do. But also, women can certainly be part of misogyny. That doesn’t mean you aren’t right, though, about them assuming by default you’re a man.

          You are such an absolute hypocrite. If you’re really a feminist, you’re doing a piss-poor job at it.

          Don’t accuse someone of bad faith when you’re here pretending there are no implications behind the term dickhead.

              Don’t play dumb. You’re challenging patriarchy (or at least putting on the airs of someone who does), so by defualt you’re a feminist.

                  Wtf is wrong with your brain, mate?

                  Do you really think literally everyone on Earth challenges patriarchy? No. Hardly anyone admits it exists. That’s kinda the point of feminism, galaxy brain. Being aware of it and challenging it is pretty much all it takes to be a feminist.

        I love how I never said any of that, you just went off because I was poking at an exposed nerve. 2016 never really did end for a lot of people.

      That’s not quite true, though, is it? The idea that one gender is better than the other is kinda the problem you’re fighting against, isn’t it? Flipping it around doesn’t solve the issue, it just inverts it.

      That being said, I do think groups of women are better at cooperating than groups of men. Groups of men tend to try to one-up each other and compete, rather than cooperate.
