I am white, grew up middle classed, able-bodied, raised christian, in the US, had two parents, and I am a man. What am I supposed to do?
Should I feel guilty? Should I make all efforts to use affirmative action to always hire women/minorities over men? Should I no longer meet with like-minded people and talk about our experiences in computing? Should I quit my job and go into teaching social studies in public school instead?
The article makes a few interesting points, but I am not convinced of the correlation and they are grasping at air. Plenty of us weren't rich kids, and not all rich kids went into technology. Not everyone with a computer at home went into technology either! My younger sister has had a computer available for a longer percentage of her life than me, and isn't in technology either.
