You just brought up the fact that there are few women in the pipeline for IT, and in the very next paragraph you're glossing over the possibility there are fewer non-white people in the pipeline at law firms.
Furthermore, how many of those women fell off the partner track when they had families? You can't put in 70+ hours a week with young children unless you're not spending any time with them. And once you're off the partner track, it's a herculean effort to get back on for a lawyer of either sex.
