When psychologists or neuroscientists hear "male and female brains are from different planets", as the article writes, they cringe. It's true that there are some average differences between male and female brains [1], and we shouldn't forget that, but we still understand little about how the brain works. Also the article goes so far as to say > Peculiarities of the brain structure make women emphasizers, able to interpret other people’s emotions better and share their feelings. Men are more inclined to be systemizers, somewhat more able to analyze, explore and intuitively understand how things work [..] It all boils down to the fact that women can add some much needed balance to the tech industry — adding an alternative thought process and bringing intelligence to the table. Which amounts to "we need more women because their brains are different", which is worth comparing to the old-school sexism of "we need less women because their brains are different".
