Most of the time, when dealing with a computer problem, I really would rather not make a distinction. But there are topics where the sex/gender of people matters, if only to talk about how much it really DOESN'T MATTER. So, how do does one refer to this topic without being offensive to some people? I am somewhat "out of the loop" on the sexism topic. What is sexist about woody?
