It's not explicit enough to be harassment, but just bad enough to make a woman engineer in a professional setting with you feel uncomfortable, and want to actively avoid you.
"...we decided to do this show as there's a lack of hot females talking about technology..." I'm assuming it's in jest?
We think tech is a hot topic and we don't have any issues with making our show playful, interesting and casual.
If you want to watch serious Q&A type stuff, go for it- you're not our demographic. There's plenty of awesome content like that across the internet.
I guess I never knew it was there in the past, and had gone away. However, not to be too rude, but I will take my spice from spicier sources and stick to TED for my nerd fixes.
I guess I am saying that it's time to retool, ladies. I AM the closest thing to your demographic, and I don't really get it. Your comment about not caring about the comments rings a bit hollow if you are simultaneously slinking over here to purr about your show.
Anyway, best of luck, but I would advise getting really serious about your tech interviews and leave the casual stuff for after dark.
I was clarifying that I understand that we're going to get obnoxious comments on us being girls and I'm okay with it, it comes with the territory.
Feedback on the show is welcome in general. That is why I'm posting. : )
Thanks for the feedback. And yes, TED is amazing!
I think the point ojbyrne is making is that your selling point is you're hot and are therefore inviting people to comment on that when really we should be commenting on the interview and therefore we're wrong to criticise those that do comment on your appearances etc because you're making that the focus.
Really though - just saw your blurb in your hn profile. We have some free interview slots in February.

Again. Love the idea and hope you guys knock it out of the park!
