These stories always feel so bizarrely insulting. Now listen bros, my girlfriend is a total dunce but even she, a woman, managed to follow instructions and execute an install wizard, just like a competent man would. And that is why 2024 is the year of the Linux desktop. #feminism

My actual point is that most people are idiots who can’t read instructions. I’m not insulting women, I’m insulting everyone.

I’ll remember to simply omit her gender in the future.

The important part is that she is non-technical, not that she’s a woman.
