Are there any straight famous computer scientists or programming language designers? OK I know that guido is married and has children, but his shit language sucks, so we don't count him.
Turing: openly gay. Church: also openly gay. [i]Dijkstra[/b]: most likely gay, I'd say 90% gay. Pretty much anyone involved in early days of UNIX, C, internet: bearded muscular men who enjoy close company of other bearded men, and even spend weekends together? Can't be gayer than that. Kenneth Iverson, designer of APL, died at the age of 84 being single, but that was before Canada legalized same-sex marriage. Eric Allman, developer of sendmail, the program that passes around all of your email, lives in a civil union with another man, that's A+ gay on my gay scale.
All famous CS women are trannies. This is a well-known fact.
So yeah, if you are straight and cis-gender, it must be really tough for you, so we'll be watching our gay and gender-queer privilege.
