I really think you should leave out the whole " gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size or race."

I can think of several things not accounted for there that I consider personal and a big turn-off.

As I said my biggest issue is when people are not helpful and make snide remarks about my choice of operating system, what mail client I use, or what editor I use to edit my code with, and what is my preferred programming language. That is not covered.

So the point is not being helpful should be avoided. If you are helpful it's really hard to be making fun of people's gender, sexual orientation, disability , physical appearance, body size or race or any other special classifications someone identifies themselves with.

I think people understand the concept of helpful.

Thanks,
Regina
