I don't know about female executives, but female hackers are a pleasure to work with. I'm lucky to be working with two right now on Nuuton, and its just great. Very smart hackers without the testosterone driven need to prove themselves on every opportunity. They just work independently and give great feedback. They are a key driver of the success of Nuuton.

Seems like pretty stereotypical ways to view genders in the workplace. I've worked with women who are always trying to look good at someone else's expense. I've worked with men who work independently and give great feedback.

Gender has almost nothing to do with it. Your experiences are purely anecdotal.

You are right.

I agree. My team at LinkedIn was awesome in that respect. There were several women on it. They were extremely talented from a technical perspective, and their communication skills were great. I'd echo what you said.
