- sketerpot 17y agoI know you're joking, but this meme of "disproving" statistical statements with individual counterexamples really steams my clams.
- mixmax 17y agoWell, even though it was intended as a joke I can only agree.
- pwnstigator 17y agoShe has a leadership role in a technology company. Society views leadership and technological prowess as masculine traits. So that's androgyny. An androgynous person is one who has a mixture of masculine and feminine traits, and there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, I'd generally argue that it's a good thing, because gender roles/stereotypes are limiting and generally bogus. Most people who are worth a damn are fairly androgynous, because there are plenty of worthwhile traits on both sides of the stereotypical gender divide.
- nostrademons 17y agoShe strikes me as more androgynous than most of the female software engineers I know, and certainly more androgynous than the average female. Pictures don't tell the whole story. :-)
