"a bastion of male dominance where women are subjected to scorn and disrespect is a problem"

LOL. As if these geeks even have a chance of getting within 10 feet of a female...

Right. The other guys have almost zero chance of getting laid from any female developer. So why would they have any motivation to treat them any better from how they treat a guy?

Linux development is distributed around the world. Most of these people would never see each other, except perhaps at occasional conferences. They know each other as email addresses.

The women who write crappy code are being treated with the same contempt that a guy who couldn't do his job would be. And their little princess egos can't handle that.

That's pretty much it in a nutshell.

I always wondered how people who can't leave the house without "putting their face on" could make the myth of a "fragile male ego," float.
