I once had someone ask in a class of mine why CS is considered such a male subject when all these women seem so influential (Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper, and many more) and the teacher responded: I wouldn't be concerned what other people think now, I'd be more concerned with what you can do today. These women did incredible things when no one was paying attention. And I've always thought that was a great point. I have no doubt based on the stats that tech is male dominated but there are a ton of incredible women out there and highlighting there stories is really important.
