    One doesn’t have to go looking, there’s lots of assholes who think it’s “apolitical” to assume that everyone working in software is a dude.

      Bad example at the end though, loads of of people use “dude” as a gender neutral term though. But yeah I take your meaning about assuming men in dev.

        Agree that dude transcends gender, bit the PR replaces “he” with “they”.

        People who use “dude” as a gender neutral term should tell me how many dudes they’ve kissed.
