To sum up ... if I got this right. We want this changed, not because its political incorrect, but because this kind of gender specific language is linked to a tradition of suppressing women.
Unfortunately our culture has a tradition of ignoring women, and especially ignoring their technical, political and other contributions. This is reflected in our everyday language, for instance by using "male- one" words like "dude", even when the audience actually consists of both genders. One part of securing equal rights for men and women is to change that where we can. -- Women will no longer be ignored. -- Please sync nmap 4.50-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178888 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
