How is that the other way around? I think it's more like the other side of the coin.

  It's subtly different, IMO. One possibility is that men are influencing women (via patriarchy) to choose less profitable fields & careers. The other is that women are influencing men (via their sexual preferences) to choose more profitable careers. An analogy would be beauty. It's quite obvious that it's the women who care more about their appearance (due to male sexual preferences) rather than men caring less.

  Most of what I was trying to convey was explained by tomp, but to take a concrete example: Is the gender imbalance in computing because women who are interested in computing are being forced out of the field, or because men who aren't interested in computing are being forced into the field?
