And how did you arrive at this estimate?
Most of us are only known by our email address (not a name) and with names from so many different countries and so many names that can be of either sex, I am not sure that you have any concept.
I am a good example, my name can apply equally to either sex, as can that of my spouse (Jackie). Would you care to guess which of us is the male and which is the Linux using female?
And on top of that, the users on this list really don't matter as to what sex uses Linux. Even if the male is the one installing linux and on this list, the female might be a user as well (or vice versa). It is still a rare thing to have a family of complete geeks where both the male and female would be interested in Linux.
And as to unmarried geek females, maybe they are smart enough to have a life away from the CRT or LCD. That is more than I can say for most single geeks I know whether they like Linux or MS.
Good grief! This has got way out of hand. It was a simple observation by someone. Plain and simple! Anyone who is up in arms about it, has got too much crap in their head or is someone just waiting for something like this to come up, just to cause shit! Cool your jets, calm down, and learn to take a simple observation with a breeze. john
