>We're simply not going to have women succeeding in tech and entrepreneurship until we break down the construct of women existing solely as objects that are parts their society. Women are taken very seriously (helped and protected) when they portrays themselves as objects in need of help, and are not taken seriously as seriously when they try to act as free agents. Men are taken more seriously when they act as free agents, but are cast aside when they show vulnerability. Some believe that this is purely because of societal expectations, some believe that this is purely because of biology, and some believe it is somewhere in between. But no matter which you believe is true, it should be clear that continuing to portray yourself and your gender as vulnerable and incapable of achieving their goals without external (male) support is doing the exact opposite of making you seem like a mature free agent. It makes you seem like a child. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C46rSIfTum4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C46rSIfTum4
