Was that you trying to make an ironically chauvinistic joke, or are you just a sexist ass?

Heh well you know actually I do have PMS! I'm due to start maybe tomorrow or Tuesday. Wow and to think my epiphany was just hormones. Man those things are useful!

Nothing to be ashamed, everyone has bad days. But please DO NOT downplay hormones effect on behaviour. People with Thyroid or other hormones misbalance will disagree.

Why it cannot be all options, the world is not a binary choice. It is not good or bad..black or white

This is so thoroughly inappropriate. Sexism, like any form of prejudice, has no place in the tech world.

Agreed! If was a man I would said: 'Someone had a bad day' or 'Did not get enough sleep'. I agree that in one 'sexist' MINE I was referring about some biological (true or not) facts and other (man related) I was referencing to situational (sleep?day). And If I say to man: 'Hey someone has its level of testosterone TOO high' there is a great chance he will see that as compliment..
