        Saying I'm "whining" is a way of telling me to shut up, and to people who would say that, may I politely suggest you go f*** yourself?

          Also lol seriously the most whiney things I read are people complaining about people they usually manage to ignore having visible opinions.

            It is btw really jarring to read threads about yourself where the topic of discussion is "does she deserve to have an opinion on this?"

              And to see people evaluating you as to whether you are a "good enough" women in tech. Pro-tip - I'm a human being. We all are.
