With you in that the sexist comment means avoid, but am I missing something about the browser name? Aren’t ladybirds just what ladybugs are called in the UK?

I think I need a little more help here. Maybe it’s just about not having English as a native language, but the link talks about avoiding the word bug because of connections to sodomy?

It’s not just you. I can’t imagine many people associating bug with… sodomy. 🤷‍♀️
