Comment Katz' "Raisin Creative Jerks" Get Soggy in Milk? (Score 1) 507

Gee, make us chicks look like a bunch of whiners, Mr. Katz. Most of the hostility I've seen in the tech workplace (and on the net) is not of the "women vs. men" sort but "geek vs.norm"...99.5% (it floats!) of geeks in today's world are men. In my experience, the lines of communication don't seem to break down across gender, but between those who once owned an Amiga and those who thought that an Amiga was a compact car sold in Venezuela [1]. I am no stranger to flames/flaming myself (which anyone who has ever been served my meatloaf can attest to [2] ). This "women are scared of technology and the Internet because there are MEAN BOYS there" line is a bucket o' bat guano.

[1] which, not surprisingly, lacks cupholders, air conditioning, or door handles. But, dammit, you can play "Lemmings" in it. :P
[2] C'mon, a little carbon never hurt anyone.
