…or, you know, the directly hostile and sexist things women sometimes experience in the industry. As described in the original post.
Not to say that Greenspun is wrong in his conclusions, but when women are saying "I find it unpleasant to be in the industry because…", it seems kinda patronising to turn around and suggest that they're wrong.
