They're all women? Your fashion app has only female fashion? And we know that in 4M people there are no men that either like to look at pictures of women or, gasp, cross-dress?

Is that really of any importance here?

Is this comment contributing anything?

No, but it's important that we control and police language and shove PC culture into your head at absolutely any opportunity and just grind and grind and grind away at any artifact of traditional culture.

Case in point - see the 900 post Tesla Falcon Heavy thread, where the majority of the discussion centered around a tangential point over gender expectations.

Was this the main point of the story? - "At some point, we were lucky to get noticed by the App Store team, and we’ve been featured as App of the Day throughout the world"

That's kind of the impression I got too. Build a nice looking app and hope that Apple throws you a bone I guess.
