How many Lemmy users are non-technical background? (self.asklemmy)

I think most all of us here on Lemmy are people with technical background. Most of my professional contacts remained using Reddit, Twitter and even excited when Threads launched.

If you are non-tech background, please comment and share what you do for life.

I believe you, and I have many examples from my own life where girls are outsmarting guys because they are forced to use their brains. Guys sometimes doesn't because we can just use strength instead, like you said.

And being smaller and more agile is a huge plus in most situations as well.

Pretty much agree 100%.

Man I'm so glad that zoomers understand the difference between sex and gender, and are doing away with this, "boys do this, and girls do that!" bullshit.

Like, oh yeah, do you know a lot of girls who are, in your mind, uncharacteristically smart? That right? That's not condescending in any way.

I don't know anyone who would say "uncharacteristically smart" like that. Sounds very offensive.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree. Maybe you shouldn't imply it then.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I didn't. Maybe you shouldn't read things that aren't there.

Maybe you're just oblivious, but that's exactly what you implied. That "girls" "outsmarting boys" is something novel to you.

I'm amazed you are reading that into what I said. Seems more likely you want to pick a fight with someone. But I have no interest in that, so let's just stop here. :)
