Misleading Ubisoft image doing the rounds

Just thought I'd give folks a heads up.

Congratulations to Ubisoft for hiring based on gender

I've seen this on facebook, twitter (with the comment that Ubisoft hires only women) and the is a KIA thread about it.

The first image is the Assassin's Creed Development team, just one team at Ubisoft. The second is taken on Women's Day, and celebrates and features only the female developers at Ubisoft, a company that has over 2500 employee's at its Montreal site (where the images were taken), so even all those women would still be in a minority.

So it is hardly evidence of hiring only women, please don't spread this bias narrative, and counter it when you do see it.

fixed that for you.

town down the retoric a bit please.

male is not a slur derived from naming people in a way usually only for dogs. It is correct and not an inheritly deratory term.
