Hi there,

Thanks for making this Open Source library.

I wanted to reach out to you about this library and your choice of words. There are several references in this repo that are culturally insensitive to women, such as the fact Sara's great because she's "skinny (20kb client-side)" or the fact that you can call "Sara.use()".

It's really important for our community to develop a sense of diversity and inclusion. We should be tolerant to all of our members. I think it would also increase your user base to include a much larger set of folks who would be more willing to participate if this code base wasn't politically charged in this way.

Thanks for your consideration and I'm happy to chat more if you are so inclined.
