All I can say to that is, hell yes. :D
It does exist, too, independently produced by real women who write their own code. And there is nothing sexier than that.

His ideas intrigue me and I wish to subscribe to his newsletter.
Although, to his criteria, he should add "are you willing to wear you hair in Princess Leia cinnamon buns?"

So his premise appears to be that smart girls are sexy...
I thought Gillian Anderson proved that a long time ago.

Katharine Hepburn proved it somewhere in the midst of Roosevelt's second term.

No, his premise is that the larger culture does not appear to have recognized that smart girls are sexy. The images we are bombarded with that supposedly say "sexy" have absolutely nothing to do with "smart" and absolutely everything to do with "dumb fuck bunny."

--Rob Vaux
If we want to get technical about it, we can trace that trend all the way back to the ancient Greeks who generally preferred these prostitutes (hetairas) to be educated and clever. (Unfortunately, they generally did not have a similar preference for their wives and daughters.)
But Mary Ann has a point.
And speaking of this trend, consider this link:

It would be interesting to read your reaction to the videos on the above link. (Especially the bottom one.)

Excuse me. That's:

And "their prostitutes," not "these prostitutes." (I guess I'm not that smart today.)
