The CDC recommends you stop DMing me to ask if I can teach your wife to code.
Especially since there are so many free resources online, my gender has nothing to do with my ability to teach her, and I don't have time so how about you do it, sir? π
Also, does your wife even want to code? π€¨π§ Maybe ask that important question to her first.
As a woman, this happens to us a lot more than you think.
Imagine if we started doing this to men: "Hey- can you teach my dad how to use a computer? I know you've never met and have nothing in common except body parts but, you're both dudes so y'all probably would get along". π€¨

One of my 1st eng interviews, I was leaving and they said "our other candidate is a female coder as well, I bet you'd get along great!".
To which I literally replied "...why?". lol

Anyway, gender is a construct, and personally I don't think being a woman in tech makes me special/particularly qualified to educate your wife. People are people- also, I'm busy sir Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
