Because usually girls don't create apps. Statistically female programmers are a small minority group. Why are you bickering?
It's not sexism either. Age, Gender, and Race are mentioned when they are out of the ordinary for the situation.
You don't read "45 Year old white male banker's makes billions from hedge funds" in the paper. Instead it's just "Banker from Connecticut makes billions from hedge funds". When Kevin Rose was popular with Digg we read "How this KID made millions" they emphasized his young age.
Other examples include: "Black female banker makes billions from hedge funds", "14 year old starts communications company", "Asian to run as vice president", "91 year old saves kittens from burning building.", etc... You mention people's age/gender/race when it's out of the ordinary for what they're doing. Most people have never heard of a black female banker, or a teenager starting a company, or an Asian running for vice president, or a really old person performing the heroic acts that a normally strong young healthy man would.
I've been reading the comments a lot when they have to do with women in tech. What I want to know is: what's up with all you guys who shit yourselves every time a woman is mentioned? Seriously, I feel like half the insecure and bitter "men's rights" group from Reddit migrated here to spread their bitterness and bickering. And I'm seeing more and more of this. Y'all need to chill.
