Are there no male feminists? What?
Yes, there are. "The Man" is slang for "the authorities" or "the powers that be". Although in this case of course there's a double entendre.
There was widespread uncertainty about whether or not the 'feminist programming' article / research proposal was a joke. I'm fairly sure now that it wasn't. Is this site a satirical take on that?
The "feminist programming" research proposal is real.
The C+= language "spec" is a satirical response.
I guess this site is yet another satirical response pointing to the bitbucket repo?
But shitlords, it's feminist logic! (http://reasonsociety.blogspot.ca/2011/07/feminist-logic.html)

This can't be serious.
I'm surprised you even considered it was.

"Now hosted on BitBucket, as GitHub proves to be too misogynistic to support a feminist programming language."

This can't be serious. If it is, then with logic and immaturity like that it might not get far.
EDIT:
I just scrolled down. This is very clearly satire, I didn't see the bullet points. But the whole point of satire is to get these kinds of conversations going. I'm the fall guy this time.
