And what's more they do look quite content with their lot.
The feminists who have been beating a drum about Shuttleworth have their own little bit of hypocrisy to deal with.
As this picture shows, at times the urge to make a quick buck overrides all principles. Not for nothing has it been said elsewhere that the love of money is the root of all evil.
A dot-org domain would perhaps be more appropriate for such a site - but then the moolah from Google's ads wouldn't be there.
