I wasn't stigmatising anything. I wasn't saying typical or atypical is good or bad, I was suggesting that we are just women, and not strange because of our technical interests. I was suggesting that tying to say that women who aren't into techie foo are typical is already drawing a line that doesn't need to be drawn.
