exactly. In fact based on the screenshots, the authors answers were greatly appreciated by people that asked the questions. More often than not when asking or answering questions on SO I pay attention to persons reputation and answer accept rate. I dont even look at their name. The article mentioned some anecdotal complaints from women on some engineering forum which make no sense to me whatsoever. Id love to hear from a female SO user whether they did in fact turn away from SO because of lack of women on it?
