Protip: Form an all-female software company. Gender-discriminatory hiring practices don't apply to small companies.
See Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000e and following). Title VII applies to employers that fit into the following categories: private employers with at least 15 employees.
14 Women can get together and not hire any men if they want. They can make software for women and get rich and support their families if they want.
They don't need men. They can make this completely public, legally. 14 people not big enough? Form a second 14-woman company and subcontract out to them.

My answer is the answer to the real problem. If you think you can keep sending electricity through plastic and make it work, it's worse than my "temporary hack" which is only "temporary" as long as the Constitution is in effect.
My answer brings new information to the table which most people don't know. I'm sick of these threads coming up over and over again and I've offered a fresh formulation with new ideas that people can start to use right away.
> You're trying to police ideas and behaviors that offend you.
Again where in this specific thread did you read that? In this thread, I'm questioning the long term logic of someone else's idea of what you would call "policing".
Have you read your own comments on this thread? I find it ironic that you're essentially doing the same thing that you accuse me of doing.
