Will, et al. -- I think you'll find that "fembot" dates waaay back to
the Six Million Dollar Man, not Blade Runner. And I won't say how old
that makes me.
As for the website, I'm not buying it. I associated "fem" with
empowerment, not fashion. If the site is supposed to be geared toward
women in technology why does it have a chick-lit style illustration of
a girl with shopping bags and a cell phone? My immediate take is:
patronizing & off-target. Also, calling oneself a "goddess" or "diva"
does not make that so.
But then, I am soooo old.
