Do Programming Languages Affect Your Sexual Performance?

asks: "I've used a variety of programming languanges over the years, but recently started using Java commercially (as opposed to just playing at home). As soon as I was on that Java project, I became a rampant stallion, never left my wife alone, sexually. She even started sleeping in the spare room just to get some rest on some nights! Soon, I was back on C++ (due to a budget cut and re-org). I am no longer a stallion (I won't go into more details!). My theory is that java's so easy, so after conquering an API a day (JDOM, Swing,...) I just came home and carried on conquering. Now, I have to work for a living again, and it doesn't leave much energy. Do other slashdotters have similar experience? Is lisp tantric? Do assembler programmers favour wham-bam-that's-the-end-of-that-non-maskable-inter rupt-where's-the-remote-control-honey-can-you-get- me-a-beer? What's the best programming language for attracting sexual partners? What about Operating Systems? Does MS == S&M?" Does C/C++ dampen your love life? Does Perl please your partner? Can you jive with Java? Inquiring minds want to know.
How many pathetic see-thru attempts at an April Fool joke are we going to see today?
That is THREE consecutive attempts... and counting.
What a collection of sad, feeble minds.
"Does MS == S&M?" Does C/C++ dampen your love live? Does Perl please your partner? Can you jive with Java? Inquiring minds want to know."
This should have been an "IT's funny.... laugh." But, all in all... pretty good for a Sunday night post!
Do Programming Languages Affect Your Sexual Performance?
I don't know why I bother reading slashdot on April fool's day... Most of this drivel isn't really that funny. I'm making a commitment to skip reading for the rest of the day. Who's with me?
The idea with Aprils Fools--Although I'm sure we all already know--is to trick people into something. So you can then yell HAHA!! April Fool!!! /.'s case this should be posting links to semi-belivible articals like my example here.

*sigh*... I didn't even see anything on the news today about April Fools... I think the death of the Queen Mother has clouded it.
And IT industry leaders, the media and politicians wonder why women often don't like to go into IT because of the "immature teenage male behaviour". What I can't believe is that this got past the editors (though I'm sure a lot of people will say "Hey this is Slashdot"). I grew up as a tomboy, most of my friends are male engineers, physicists, CS students and anime fans, I have teenage brothers. I *know* what guys talk about and usually I don't care. They often do it in front of me, but as I said, usually I don't care. but there is a time and place for everything and all this shows is a total lack of taste and crassness, especially since most PC magazines recommend Slashdot as *the* source for geek news, unless of course you are *trying* to offend females. It's one thing for "Anonymous Coward" to post something like this, but editors are supposed to have a measure of editorial responsibility ie. they are supposed to filter out the sexist, racist, immature crap. Heck I wouldn't even fault the editors if this was a non-famous website that the media never mentions, but slashdot is supposed to be kindof respectable and a source of news.
Then again, maybe we should expect the slashdot editors to have sex on the mind, since "slash" is the term used to describe m/m fanfiction written by females of shows like XFiles, Startrek etc. And "slash" was popular way before this site was conceived, which leads to some interesting questions...I wonder if someone is trying to tell us something with their choice of names for this site?
