edit: If I'm wrong, correct me with facts/logic/cogent arguments. Jumping to "burn the witch" whenever gender is involved _is the core of the problem_ -- differential treatment over gender identity.

Weird to pull gender into the application of logic to solve problems. I wonder if there's a narrative that the author wants to sell.
>Thank god I recently got engaged, otherwise all I’d have to look forward to is harassment at tech events.
Oh neat, another inflammatory article about invented sexism and harassment!
>Compassion is what lets me understand that even though I have never been harassed at a tech event, it doesn’t mean it is not a very real problem women face.
The author doesn't even make it 50 words before showing that she's hungry to be offended:
>"Thank god I recently got engaged, otherwise all I’d have to look forward to is harassment at tech events...even though I have never been harassed at a tech event"
Never been harassed at a tech event, or expectation of harassment at tech events because it's omnipresent? Which one?
> A woman recalls an attempt by a man to try to get her number during a Lyft Line ride in NYC:
Are Lyft Line rides tech events? No. They're not. Quit it.

This kind of hungry-to-be-offended garbage is detrimental.
