When a guy tells another guy "You run like a girl.", "You hit like a girl", "sit like a girl", etc... it's historically an insult.

Recently, there has been an effort to "take the phrase back" and turn "... like a girl" into a good thing - instead of being considered an insult - Like the commercials that tout "Running like a girl".

I've never heard "coding... like a girl" either, so you have to frame it as part of this movement.
