> Gender is far more than "plumbing between legs" and is an important aspect of said diversity. I wouldn't call the current group extremely diverse in the absence of it.

The current kernel developers come from all sorts of backgrounds, all sorts of economic histories, and from a large number of cultrures and countries around the world.

I think that it's far more diverse than what you would get in any company that hired from people who live/grew up in any one area, even if that company had a exact 51%/49% female/male ratio.

It is far more diverse is some areas. In gender diversity, not so much. Reducing it to "plumbing between legs" doesn't help at all.
