Spamming PyPI with stupid packages

[Felinx Lee]

Hi guys,

I am the author of girlfriend module, a serious Python programmer.
This project is nothing about sexist or racism,
it is just a joke, a famous joke in China, please be cool down.

And now, I have removed money, car, house packages from PyPi,
and remove their dependences in girlfriend module, the website is also
updated.
The girlfriend module just depends on workhard module now.
I will remove girlfriend module forever if you still think it is a spam or
illegal.

I'm sorry for that I abused the PyPi, but I should say again that it is
nothing about sexist or racism as you assumption.

I'm betting on a joke, like antigravity only significantly less funny and
more sexist. The author is a legitimate Python programmer, and the links go
to his blog where he talks about Python stuff.

You can tell him that you don't appreciate his abuse of PyPI here if you
