The Geek Gorgeous Calendar featuring Women in Technology. Come on …. what are the odds they work in Technology… despite what their bio says! They are for real, says Ms. June and calendar producer Lilac Mohr. Man do I have a big foot in my mouth!

why you gotta hate?
I Agree with Mr. King, why would you crush so many people’s dreams like so?
Om, your forgeting that technology comapnies have Sales Departments . . .
I’m the calendar’s producer, and I can confirm that all the model’s bios are legitimate (they work in the Tech industry as computer technicians, programmers, database developers, aerospace engineers, and more). In fact, it was not difficult to find these beautiful and intelligent techies. If you have questions, you can email me at info@geekgorgeous.com.

Jesse:
WTF? Sales Departments? Did you read these women’s bios? It’s attitudes like this that keep women out of technology.
Om:
You have to work with me here, man! Women can be smart AND sexy – it’s more than possible, it’s rampid. And…seriously, the whole geek=unattractive thing hurts us all. 😉

tara, it was just that a lot of these calendars show up, which are well not really real. i stand corrected and well, i did apologize.
also i did not question the geekiness and gorgeousness factor. i just wondered about the authenticity of the calendar and well, lilac says it is authentic, and that’s fine by me.
Oh man, Om, you’re so p0wned. Seems about time women could be both openly geeky and attractive. Why you think they only gots ta be one or the other by default?
Yes, this item was discussed by several women technologists who weblog. Don’t you read _any_ women webloggers?
i missed thed discussion. i do read some women technologists – susan crawford, susan mernit, and mary hodder and lately cynthia brumfield.
Appologies. I didn’t check out the site at all, let alone read bios. Still, what can I say: I went to an engineering college (10% female enrollment) and have spent many years as an engineer with (5% of co-workers female). Going months at a time without seeing a woman at the office has made me bitter and colored my comments. Really, you have me all wrong. It is my dream to be surrounded by female colleagues and it is my disapointment at its lack of realization that lead to my misguided comment. I fully retract my statement and beg forgiveness.
