Matched.io: women could live more simply by accepting male pronouns as default

  • 1. Part of the issue is a language barrier: Matched.io's team is primarily German according to LinkedIn. There seems to be some lack of linguistic nuance at work on the choice of words.

    2. Interestingly, German as a language is far more gendered than English, with gendered article and noun forms)

    3. "It would be easier if you just chill" is rarely a good answer to the representation of women in personal or professional arenas.

  • Wow yes everything would be so much easier if we just suddenly changed the most fundamental aspects of human language to suit the ideology of computer nerds. What a fantastic solution!
