(just happens to be a woman in this case). Seriously, I could see myself transposing the clueless girl in this group with a male. I'm thinking a man dressed up in a suit, ala manager of some sort.</p><p>But this makes another point; The "-ism" believers would immediately jump on my reference to the manger being male. So if I put the manager in a business skirt, would I then be accused of being a sexist assuming all "women" managers are clueless?</p><p>I will concede that woman in IT and/or hackers are some what going uphill. There just aren't that many out there statistically, so for some they don't know how to approach them. I've seen men and woman approach IT woman differently than they would a male IT person. However, like mubix said, I don't think hackers give much thought about your gender, race, religion, etc. Who really knows what gender/race/religion/sexual preference is behind that hacker handle? Does it matter?</p><p>I think the point was missed with the joke and the immediate observation. Turds come from all walks of life. Be it white, black, Latino, Mexican, male, female,etc.etc.etc.........there are turds in every group. I saw a lot of turd male Marines too....disproportionately more than with the female Marines. (this is by Marine standards people....not "normal" standards....you have to understand Marine culture) This all depends on the ones you came in contact with (no puns intended) at that point in time.</p><p>If there were only one thing I would've changed about that cartoon, I would have given the girl blonde hair..... (there I go....stereotyping people by their hair color) Sorry SecBarbie....</p><p></p>g33ks3curMon, 13 Jul 2009 22:46:09 -0000http://www.room362.com/archives/595-metasploit-framework-as-a-payload.html#comment-11776236<p>As Borat said...."Veddy Nice, Veddy nice"</p>g33ks3curFri, 26 Jun 2009 11:18:50 -0000
