I think this is just a reflection of the proportion of the female contributors in overall open source communities. There's really no reason for the Rust project to do anything "anti-female". Actually I think it is a bit too concerned with diversity. Then the problem now becomes why there aren't that many female contributors out there. This is just a theory, but I think it is because males' nature make them do free labor to obtain fame. I admit this is purely my experience, but females are more likely to refrain from such labor that does not pay off.
