Hi,
Not quite funny enough to be a joke, not quite serious enough to be an observation.
Aside from the fact that Java is not primarily a string handling language (there are much better examples), the observation he made is more a "holistic"/"reductionist" issue. It seems to follow "right brain"/"left brain" boundaries. It has little to do with gender, or even sex.
Maybe when your friend's primary influence is no longer his mother, he'll figure this out.
