    @funkatron That would be a social oversight of epic proportion, the likes of which could only happen to a @webandphp geek. @leedavis81

    @CalEvans get a grip it's a play on words. If this is all you have to worry about..it's not offensive to women or men, what is your problem?

    @skoop I disagree whole heartedly. I respect your right to hold that opinion but we are on opposite ends of this argument.

    Hey @webandphp, I don't want sexism in the PHP community I've come to love over the years. I'm with @CalEvans. Shape up or ship out.

    @CalEvans Cal, one small correction: webandphp was a sponsor (media sponsor) of SunshinePHP, so you have been involved in one they have.

    @jcarouth Thanks for the correction. It will pain me but I will stand by this. I won't attend next year if they are involved.

    @CalEvans It's a shame I'm already committed and one week away from Midwest where they are a sponsor. I hope they wake up.

    @skoop @TearSong I am Sick. To. Death. of everything being a woman's issue. I am sensitive to helping women in PHP feel welcome. I get that.
