Recognizing an inspiring woman for Ada Lovelace Day: Haskell hacker Audrey Tang
- sixbrx 13y agoMaybe not the best example given the focus of the article on inspiring women, since according to Wikipedia Audrey was born male? I thought that might deserve a mention. In fact I wonder if the author even knows? Or maybe better, just focus on the Audrey as an aspiring person?
- kxra 13y agoHooray, transmisogyny (as mentioned in the article)! Maybe you should be more respectful to LGBTQ folks and not misgender them. You're like all the self-proclaimed Chelsea Manning "supporters".
- sixbrx 13y agoNo disrespect intended (or involved at all, in my view), she was born male. Curious how you would describe the situation at birth though?
- kxra 13y agoShe's just not cisgender; she's trans. That doesn't make her less of a woman. Children are trans too. It happens every time a doctor coercively assigns a baby's gender and ends up being wrong. Either way, women are women, and this one is an inspiration.
