Why unnecessarily gender the title? #9

Open xaviershay opened 5 years ago

xaviershay commented 5 years ago

Hello! Thanks for making such a great resource.

I'd like to suggest removing "man" from the title. It's unnecessarily exclusive to at least half of it's potential audience.

"Wise Haskell" still works?

anchpop commented 5 years ago

The "Man" in "Wise Man's Haskell" refers to me (which is a little self-involved, I admit). I'm not set on this current name though, if you have any other suggestions I'd be glad to hear them. "Wise Haskell" is a little too generic-sounding, I think.

I do believe that this is an issue so I'll leave this open

ah, that was not how I read it.
