Gnu/Linux attracts poor, male nerds; not fashion models.

If you're a fashionista, and rich enough, you probably own a Mac.
More often than not, "rich fashionistas" are female.

Windows is more genderless -- and genderless is the trend, the future;
so Microsoft has won the desktop, the workplace, the office.

When will this change ? !  Not in my lifetime, I bet.

Counties with the sharpest, most distinct gender roles,
e.g. Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan, 
have abandoned human rights in favor of "men's rights".
