I am a man, but I don&#x27;t think that&#x27;s why I think it. I&#x27;d be perfectly fine with a &quot;.girl&quot; or &quot;.chick&quot; or &quot;.fem&quot; or &quot;.sis&quot; extension, or any similar variation, if it happened to be a valid acronym for some technology.<p>Unless the issue is that &quot;bro&quot; has some other kind of objectively offensive connotations, which I completely disagree with. Many women (and some men) use &quot;sis&quot; (or, much more rarely, &quot;dudette&quot;), in the exact same way as &quot;bro&quot;.<p>(And for the record, I didn&#x27;t downvote you.)
