You know the age-old complaint: When a man bosses people around, he's “in charge,” but a woman who does the same is a “bitch.” Well, here's a new one for the cyber age: When women in tech hold a provocative panel discussion about being women in tech, Twitterers call it a “catfight.” Elaine from Seinfeld would be livid.
Check you twitter feed: People tweeting about the women's panel at Tech Crunch's Disrupt conference this morning have added the hashtag #catfight (which Twitterers generally append to tweets calling for a rumble or other such fangs-bared showdown). More twitterers then entered the fray, remarking about the irony of labeling the panel a #catfight in the first place.
