the subject of dating has come up several times over coffee and other things... and today dennis sent me this link on dating Microsoft men. The frightening thing is that most of the things in the article are true. Now for all of those Microsoftie single guy friends of mine reading this see it lists places to pick up these women. Question 1: Do you want to date someone who falls into this description? i.e. attracted to the fat paycheck? Question 2: Does it bother you that these women exist? Question 3: Are you more attracted to women who work at Microsoft themselves? or is that a turn off?

Some women work at Microsoft.
Therefore, some women are men.
Oh wait...

(2) No, they have existed for hundreds of years, and will do for hundreds more.
(3) This is interesting... working here does limit your exposure to non-MS women. Over the years I have been strongly attracted to a few women in my product team. I do not think there has been a specific preference, however.
