There are actually people that don't have, and even those who don't want, a
girlfriend. Analogous, there are people who don't have nor want Emacs or Perl.
I get that this was a joke. IMHO it is a bad one, due to the heteronormative and
male hacker norm parts of it. Please take a moment and think about how we become
a more welcoming and friendly group, if we crave freedom and equality in
software we need to crave freedom and equality in the rest of our group as well
(even socially).
