Indeed. If a man has a scripting language, and a woman has a scripting language, the two would differ because there are things each can do that the other cannot. But there's a lot of things that both can do, so the two languages would be highly similar in purpose and functionality. Hmm. If you did write those two scripting languages, we would finally be able to type "man woman" to get docs on how to talk to women...
