You all keep saying that. Do I really keep coding, trying to do successful things to impress women? If that was the case, wouldn't I be more into bodybuilding or something? I started getting into programming when I was like 8 years old, and I really doubt it was to impress women.

I don't know about you, but i code(and generally exist) for the purpose of improving my self as a human being. Now you could argue that the only reason i want to be BETTER is the subconscious need to procreate. I believe(oh, how i hate this word, but cant think of a better one, maybe suspect, but thats not much better) that curiosity, obsessiveness and general interest in technology are all tools in my arsenal of self improvement. It is my desire as a human and as a male to realize my self. That means to procreate in some way, be it through children, or through something that i invent or anything else that is going to stay after my death.

ps, i actually tried to impress a girl with my |\/|4D SK1llZzZ, don't do that, even if the girl knows how to program(especially if she knows, it will be easier to see that you are an asshole).

All of them, or perhaps just the truly violent ones?
