Bob Parson, the founder of GoDaddy, recently signed a new “Go Daddy Girl.”
I think this is great for them, the commercials are funny, and I don’t think they are sexist in any way like the comments on his blog post say they are.
Whether or not GoDaddy had signed those girls, or women, wouldn’t make or break my decision to buy domain names from them. I currently have over 17 domain names there, and will probably be adding many more within the year. I love their service, and definately recommend anyone wanting to buy a domain name to buy one from them.
Since he’s been away recently, Nima has been looking after the blog. I’m only on the 2nd page of comments, but so far I’m shocked at how many people are saying he’s sexist.
In my opinion, Americans have progressed nicely in moving away from sexism, and they move closer to equality every day. But it’s people that say “that’s so sexist” that bring it all back. Just like when people say “that’s so racist” when it’s really not. It just brings the whole issue back, when all of us think that we are all equal.
I'm not finished with the design of my blog quite yet, please hold on while I fix the comments, archives, and search templates.
