Comment

To be entirely honest I believe that the comments made in this thread are fair, that awareness of men's stubbornness and misogyny can be a good thing. But, dear silicon.com, please rethink your headline before I stop reading your website because it's all too difficult for my poor female brain to understand. There are many women involved in Linux (both usage and development) and your headline knocks all those achievements on their head. Ridiculous.

(Ed note. Come on Jane - you're not seriously suggesting that the headline reflects our opinion are you? You should be able to work that much out. We are merely paraphrasing what the demonstration 'set out to the prove'. The strapline after the headline should have made it clear that we were mocking the rather un-PC sentiment and not women.)
