   So much hate is not good for the soul.  Just what do you consider a
   techie??  Obviously in your mind they are all men.  A little bit of
   gender stereotyping on your own ???  No wonder you changed your name.

   And obviously every woman in the world is perfectly capable of
   carrying on human relationships - only men are incapable of such an
   act.

   Thankfully your ideas do not represent even a tiny minority of the
   people in the world, else hate would surround us all.
