Ohhh,
The name of this browser, and this commit, that's definitely a no go concerning me.
There is enough as**oles like this,
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?

Honestly the name was enough for me but seeing the commit discussion certainly makes me feel justified for judging a book by its cover.
