No off-topic flamewar tangents, please. If Hacker News can have a civilized discussion about women's underwear without going haywire, I hope it can discuss women's farm tools.

Nope, some guys (and women) who use computers for work and who have tech hobbies also have physical hobbies and can work labor.

Though, this is a great application of smarts as a lever. Even the most hardened labourer wants their job to be easier. This one just happened to be developed by women. They'll realize they're cutting at least 50% of their potential market out, and will want the profit, and will change their stance. Hopefully.
