Me ONLINE

I was reading up on Anrdoid news as I often do, and came across this article >AndroidGals: Where are the Girlie Android Phones?< over at the Androidguys.com website. This article annoyed me because one I think it makes women look bad, and two… one is enough. This article makes women look dumb and foolish. To quote a comment made from  ‘Nonymouse’:

As a female owner of the Nexus One… no. I spit on the “girly phones”, because the vast majority of them look effing tacky. Cheap. Awful. Tasteless. Not to mention that most of them have terrible specs. Give me that Snapdragon chip, that easily unlocked bootloader, and a bevy of developers so I’ll have a range of custom ROMs to flash. And fuck the pink and purple plastic: I want class; I want something that feels good in my hand, not a plastic piece of crap that looks like it’d go with a Barbie set.Speak for yourself if you want, but please don’t presume to speak for other women. “What us girls want in a phone” makes you sound vapid and gives me secondhand embarrassment. Just because your taste runs toward godawful tacky Barbie-esque pieces of crap doesn’t mean every other woman’s does, too. GTFO.

The author of the article states she would prefer a phone that essentially is a Blackberry. Why get an Android phone when you want a Blackberry, don’t expect a Android phone to be a Blackberry because it’s not and hopefully never becomes anything like the Blackberry which I think is one of the worst phones ever made. The author talks about nails and generalizes women making us look like we’re all plastic barbies that want a girl looking phone and would sacrifice quality and functionality for pretty things we can use that wont mess our nails up.

Now listen here, write whatever you want, and express your feelings but do not DO NOT say you speak for all women. You do not. You may speak for those with long fake nails and bimbo makeup, or what a barbie doll life, but you do not speak for all women. The author then states she would like to be in a focus group for HTC and that she could teach them a thing or two, no you could not. Women like me hope that women like you are never in a focus group.
