iPhone is sexist?

Article here.

Apparently, the patriarchy has launched an attack against the poor, long-fingernailed women who have difficulties using the iPhone.

Erica Watson-Currie of Newport Beach, Calif., wanted a stylus. She and other women who have long nails -- as well as some people of all genders with chunky fingers -- have trouble typing on the iPhone.

According to recent definitions...

Male
Female
Transgendered M2F
Transgendered F2M
Hermaphroditic M-F
Hermaphroditic F-M

Then there are these:

Gaymale
Gayfemale
Bifale
Bifemale
GayManTrappedInWoman'sBody
GayWomanTrappedInMan'sBody
BiManTrappedInWoman'sBody
BiWomanTrappedInMan'sBody
Str8ManTrappedInWoman'sBody
Str8WomanTrappedInMan'sBody
etc.

Actually, in order to finish this list, you'd be better off making a matrix of sorts. The X axis would be Physicality and the Y axis Sexuality. Maybe a 3-dimensional matrix would work better, with the Z axis being "PschoPhysicalSexualSelfImage". Confused? That's OK. It's "normal". :)

Wikipedia lists these terms to define different genders and variations on genders.

* heterosexual
* homosexual
* lesbian (butch and femme)
* gay
* queer
* bisexual
* transexual
* crossdresser
* transgender
* intersexual

Note that the majority of these categories are flavors of homosexuality (male and female)along with a couple "can't make up my mind yet" cop-outs.
