Sounds like she was making a general point there.  It seems ok to include in a list of junior dev tips, if for no other reason than a friendly reminder.<p>Also, many junior devs are fresh out of college, where boob-staring is a fond past time and hitting on classmates is a normal thing.  But that&#x27;s not acceptable in the work place.<p>They might also not be used to talking to women about code if their classes are predominately male.  There are a lot of unrealized biases and bad habits that can go away with time and experience, but this is a good reminder for the introverted and extroverted alike: the women on your team are geeks just like you.  Geek out with them!<p>Aside: I had to catch one of my own bad habits writing this post.  I initially wrote &quot;girls&quot; instead of &quot;women&quot;, which can be marginalizing terminology.
