    I was saying that their are more honest ways of presenting these women’s accomplishments rather than saying the web wouldn’t exist.

    Yes, I see your point. But despite me being a non native English speaker I figure (And I could be totally wrong) the “No web without women” can be interpreted in more than one way. It could also mean that in computer history women deserve to have their place be known to the public rather than forgotten or completely ignored or downplayed.

      I appreciate you sharing your interpretation and I agree. The sciences are even worse. If we hire a service we have my wife handle the first conversation while I stay in another room to ensure we don’t hire anyone that is openly misogynistic. I couldn’t even begin to count how many people we’ve turned away due to some variation of “can I talk to your husband”.
