during DrupalconDenver, someone tweeted some pictures of 'booth babes'. however, some of the women in the photos were not models hired to stand by the stalls, but drupal professionals staffing the stalls.
so women who were just doing their job as drupal professionals were mistaken for models who don't know anything about drupal. this is exactly the sort of thing that makes it harder for women to be taken seriously.
thanks!
