Wanted at Chinese Startups: Attractive Women to Ease Coders’ Stress

As a female programmer, I wish I could have a programmer motivator. It's been a tough week.

Whereas the West sees male domination in tech as a problem and intervenes, China caters. Which approach will end up being more productive? Does it matter?

Assuming "Coder" is code for male, may eases the stress of being one of the tens of millions of males for whom there is no female to meet and marry.

1. Have your engineers work 13-14 hour per day. 2. Bring in a hot feemale for $950 a month to cheer them up. 3. Profit

Attractiveness is all about how much time and effort you spend on it. But what's most frightening is our bias on appearance, and how we treat people different based on how they are dressed/makeup. No wonder (hot) people, women in general, spend several hours every day just to look good.

If that makes someone comfortable, why not offer it. It’s not illegal other than a thought crime in the US.<p>If offered a good salary in a foreign country, I’d weigh different perks like this.

How could they consider this an even remotely inclusive way to build a workplace?

In some Chinese companies, they hire male models to send flowers to female staff.<p>[0]<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bbs.wangjing.cn&#x2F;data&#x2F;attachment&#x2F;forum&#x2F;201703&#x2F;08&#x2F;134016t1ca6dadc3hv3h93.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;bbs.wangjing.cn&#x2F;data&#x2F;attachment&#x2F;forum&#x2F;201703&#x2F;08&#x2F;13401...</a>

This shows a great wisdom.<p>The Chinese culture is an ancient culture and we have a lot to learn from them, if we can see beyond our arrogance.

People are diverse and morality is diverse. As long as everyone involved is happier with this then it should continue.
