I wonder why Django doesn't have the same strength (both technically and community) as Rails ? I think the philosophy "Everything is an object" makes sense actually, and in combination with functional programming built-in really makes Ruby is perfect choice for non-professional programmer (even woman) to love coding.

I may be wrong, but I think Rails has a way higher percentage of total Ruby use than Django does of total Python use.

Rails is in downward trending, where Django is steady and slowly increasing over the years: http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=Ruby%20Rails%2C%20Python%20Django&cmpt=q http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=Ruby%20Rails%2C%20Pyt...

> perfect choice for non-professional programmer (even woman) It's 2013. Could we please leave 'so easy even a woman could use it' levels of sexism behind us? (Not to mention - it's a little silly to single out web frameworks as the One True comparator of two languages. That Rails is more popular than Django does not necessarily imply that Ruby is a better language than Python, any more than the fact that SciPy is more popular than SciRuby implies the reverse).

I don't come to HN to see blatantly obvious sexism. I come to HN to avoid it. Please stop.
