When someone gives you that emotionless stare, it means not only is you comment not funny, it’s not really socially acceptable.
Linux users are not all male, or all straight, or single. Outside of incel groups, most groups aren’t (probably even they have members who secretly aren’t!) 😃
The first step will be for more and more of tech management to actually confront their misogyny. And not just the obvious stuff like this, but also subtle stuff like how women’s professional performances are often seen as worse when not blinded.

Yeah, as a married lesbian linux user the joke is gross and reminds me why so often tech related spaces are so male dominated
sorry you have to deal with that. fwiw i cringe when that happens.
Which sucks, because tech needs women. Badly.
