Sad for me. I'm yet to meet a [good] female programmer. I'd really love to meet one if there are any. Females typically just choose to sit behind desks clicking away at an already prepared application without bothering what code lies behind the application. Any female programmers in this forum please contact me. We could do a job together.

Yes very big fat chance. Cos I am a Java expert myself. Not trying to be sexist but was also top of my class which had 2 girls and abt 40guys. ANyone can do what they set their mind to as long as they really want to.

Dim_kyky: Hello all.I am new here am nt sure if there are any females on this forum and if there are i wud like dem to please notify. I am a beginner in programming and i love it so much.Is it advisable as a female.

a lot of these male coders arent very bright, and they have abysmally low comprehension skills.

add to that a narcissitic and vain personality, very quick to throw insults,clannish, and extremely resistant to constructive criticism.

given all these, it will be a tough ride.


many of them are parked in religion section parroting some atheist or satanist mumbo jumbo, others are scattered all over the forum and some say they were given a "mandate" to "stalk" certain users, maybe they're being paid to do so.



personally, imo having a first degree in any discipline should be a prerequisite for coding. undecided

*dhtml:

she needs serious flogging


@talk2hb1, i dont use any stimulant, and on days when i have loads of work, i can code for 16 hours at a stretch without getting up
to even eat - and on the average, i sleep for not up to 6 hours, and not up to 8 hours on days that i am completely worn out.

I am like that naturally before i started programming - restlessness is my second nature. But i had to drop out of so many social / sport
activities over tyme = used to play chess, table tennis, football, karate club, video game (ave u guys seen darksiders?). . . . . .but i had
to leave almost all of them and focus on programming. . .and [size=1pt]medicine[/size]

I guess programming is just like that, but on the contrary, in terms of lyfestyle, i will say i am a jeun-soke programmer. . .


@poster, i dont believe programming has to do with male or female, just that, it is commonly associated with males, but i have met some
female programmers that are able to make me look like a primary 2 programmer sha
MEDICINE? Seriously?

Yes definitely, There are so many chances that a female can become a good programmer. If you have a good knowledge of programming language and good knowledge about web designing software than you can easily become a good programmer. To become a good programmer you have to do lots of practice of programming and web designing.

I'm proud to be a web mistress & programmer! I run www[dot]webcreationsng[dot]com! I have always loved design and programming & i just want to encourage all would-be-female-programmers not to get intimidated; its not only a man's world! Being a professional doesnt have anything to do with gender but with brains, focus, grace & persistence. I wish all aspiring female programmers the best,cos the sky is just our starting point!

women hav brains too. But they hate using it. They hide under some shabby pretences but if there was a war and women were put in nazi concentration camps and forced to learn java , c++, asm, cryptography or have their brains bllown out. I'm sure many of them would excel.. Men aint helpg matters, always pampering lazy women doing their thinking for them. Hav u seen how some women learn how to face life after d garri winner dies?

Hi all,

I am a female programmer. I have been coding for over 6 years now. Working on big projects.

Both male and female can program depending on you and you.

Yes there is no crime in becoming a programmer, i am a female too and i also love programming, but i have never really contributed to this section of

nairaland because every time i come in here, i only see the ( M ) status so i did not want to be the odd one out or the only female in this section.
dat is d problem, she shys away wen boys are arnd! to succed n whateva u want, u nid to tro away dat feminist tng fo a while! stop waitng fo men to open door fo u, open d door nd get out of ur cmfort zone, u cannot b n comfort and expect t b a good programer or gud anytng! fo u to succed u nid to walk ahead and hav all d men runing to catch up wit u, wen u fall or fail, u immedtly get up and expect no sympathy frm nobody! programming is not done wit pnis or flat chest nor with muscles but wit a lot of mental strenght and endurance.
