Agreed. But this site doesn't do that. It consistently refers to women as women.
For example the about page:
> Welcome to Code Like A Girl, a space that celebrates breaking down society’s perceptions of women in technology. We believe that by providing women and girls with strong female role models we will be able to tip the gender ratio scale in tech. We hope to achieve this by amplifying the voices of women and their allies!
Or look at the Role Models section, it consistently uses women. The Girls section of the site has stories about female children.
