Dear Ermias,
I find the jokes you sent about Eritrean girls/women and women in
general VERY, VERY, VERY, OFFENSIVE AND TASTELESS. Please know we have
brains and we use them too. Be sensitive and shade of your stereotypes of
girls/women. Remember it was Ada Lovelace's work on how a machine could
be used to perform mathematical operations that helped Charles Babbage
build the first computer. Given on how schools and college curriculua
are youmay not have known about this. FRom the great minds of women great
things have been created.
Selam and ridette to all of us.
