Honest question

Being that fewer women are programmers, i have the theory that programming is a manly occupation.

Being that, it could be possible that programmers is one of the gayless profession of all???

I was thinking about that while i was inserting a suppository into my anus this morning.

The percentage of actually good coders is probably the same across both sexes; that is, a very small fraction. When you multiply this very small fraction by another very small fraction (the fraction of females into programming), you get a very very tiny fraction. Don't forget that most programmers will, sadly, never get past using Java or C++ and writing EnterpriseFactoryFactory code. I hate to quote Randall, but xkcd #385 works much better for programming than maths; we are used to swimming through an ocean of shitty male coders; yet when we encounter a female coder, we somehow assume that the statistics will be different. Guess what? They aren't.
