> What the fk is going on that I can work for years on teams of 90% men? You have to seperate "unattractive to women" with sexism. For example it's a truism of our field that to get reasonable pay rises you have to job hop. Woman tend to want to stick around in a job longer than men. So it's a big negative for them. Women tend to prefer building close relationships in the workplace. In a field that values technical competence above language and cultural compatibility it's harder to build these relationships. Again another big negative for women wanting to work in software dev. Or consider that we as an industry love new and shiny and see how compatible that is with women who want to be able to take a few years off for children. I could go on and on. All these factors make our industry unattractive to many women... but they aren't sexist. As a male software dev who works on older legacy software I am constantly judged when I interview for not keeping up with the industry.
