[Haskell-cafe] Are there any female Haskellers?

One study suggests that the perceived work environment is too geeky:

I also suspect that much Haskell promotion is targeted towards male oriented
sites, which does not help things:

http://www.quantcast.com/reddit.com

So, basically, just cultural issues combined with 'poorly targeted'
marketing. So, stop being so geeky ;)
