calling people on sexism isn't overreacting, it is simply reacting. and saying people should be silent when they see stuff like this is much worse in the long run for the community.

That was pretty clearly unintentional. Every xmas I do the best of my efforts to purchase gift for my little female cousins that can help them developing skills, while unfortunately many others will buy them a Barbie, so I really care about this kind of issues. But writing a bad title unintentionally is not sexism.

Your English is good enough that I, for one, didn't realise it wasn't your first language.

Thanks, btw thinking about this better, overreacting is better than overlooking at this kind of issues.

for sure! and I try to understand the non-native speaker issue, I live in Switzerland, and am a native English speaker who tries my hand at German sometimes to mixed results. it's hard and easy to make mistakes.

I've been having a lot of fun with the Codea app, props to the founder and thanks again for pointing out the sale

Thanks.

(I have removed my flag, and hope everyone else who flagged it removes their flags too.)

Thank you. Btw I'll make sure to avoid this error in the future.

No real harm done. I was not aware that in Italian - having a gramatical dependency on genders - "your son" would be considered as "your kiddo".

I was sure to teach my hypothetical (as in Schroedinger hypothetical) daughter to code anyway ;-)

basically in Italian there is no neutral like "children", you can say "your sons" (i tuoi figli) or "your daughters" (le tue figlie), and to say it generally you use the male gender. There is no way to say it in a mostly unbiased way using the singular, but just the plural, and still it is "your sons".

This is the most interesting thing I learned today! (no really, no sarcasm here)

Thanks for the explanation.

I can definetely relate to the OP. The Indonesian(my native language) language doesn't really use gender specific either. That was one of the biggest problem I had when I moved to the US.

Everything is a learning exercise.
