I think that a lot of these conversations are happening at "Women in Tech" events and it would be great if there was a way for men to be more of a part of that

  > it would be great if there was a way for men to be more of a part of that I for one am too scared that I might blurt out something offensive inadvertently and get labeled a 'misogynist' which can pretty damning to one's career and something you cannot defend yourself against. All it takes is one person with an agenda to tarnish your reputation forever. I don't want someone tweeting at my employer with "are you ok with this .." thanks but No thanks. I am going stay far far away from "women in tech" business .

    There has to be a more and better inclusive model. Because we really need to all learn how to get past this

        I am not really happy with "Women in Tech" movement in general, I think that it should be broader and more focused on diversity. So, I would like to see events that are more focused on bringing people together.

          Agreed. I know that when I am speaking to a "women in tech" I know that my every word would be put under microscope. I am a result of society like everyone else with its baises and prejudices. So instead of talking about and examining my/our own prejudices, i have to pretend to be a morally infallible saint who is incapable of thinking "wrong" thoughts.
