With a nose like that, I'd resent men, too.

Feminist Software Foundation is a pseudo-group of trolls pretending to be feminazis. Often seen shilling/trolling/posting on 4chan's /g/ they are working on the first feminist programming language, "C-Plus-Equality." The group came about as a result of /pol/acks and /g/entoomen working together to create a fake language called C+=, or "CPlusEquality," after a feminazi called for a feminist and misandry-enabling programming language themselves, who want to feel programs into creation rather than design them like some sort of domineering patriarch.

   
 
In the scope of my research, a feminist programming language is to be built around a non-normative paradigm that represents alternative ways of abstracting. The intent is to encourage and allow new ways of thinking about problems such that we can code using a feminist ideology.
 

 
 

—Programming languages are the perfect way to promote a political ideology.

   
 
As a student of Technology and Social Change, I am currently exploring what a feminist programing language would look like for my thesis. Technology and Social Change an interdisciplinary degree that combines computer science with the humanities so that technology can interpreted and created through a socially conscious, interdisciplinary lens. Some projects I have been involved with are FemTechNet, WikiStorming, and research regarding teaching kids computer science. I am interested in women in technology, feminism, and computer science.
 

 
 

Asking for it.

C-Plus Equality

All trolls have their methods and FSF is no example. Rather than simply just shilling on /g/, they are pretending to work actually working on a new programming language inspired by a feminist's call to arms.
