Instead of interviewing women who decided on computer science it would be better to
interview women who were thinking of or who switched from CS. I am willing to venture that sexism, gender bias, and unfair policies aren't reasons women would cite.
In fact in my personal experience talking with women while I was in college who started off in CS or others that took intro CS courses typically the responses were:
"Didn't click for me"
"Didn't like all the math requirements"
"Found it boring and teadious"
"Isolated, rather work with people"
Those reasons are much simpler and frankly make more sense then a grand sexist and biased plot by men to oppose and opress women from getting into CS.
