Why did you even ask how you displayed bias, since you're perfectly not-ashamed to admit it now?

  Bias is not the same as "bias against", also I never even mentioned IT. What is your problem with bias? Also bias is merely an expectation, not a judgment. If I expect women to have longer hair than men on average, it is not the same as discriminating IT women at the workplace. The way I was quoted, I interpreted as if I have some negative attitude towards women, which is not true. As for women in IT, to be honest I haven't even met one for years now. Do they even exist?

    You might find some at 3boobs.de, it's probably a site you're familiar with. As far as I'm concerned, that counts as showing a negative attitude towards women. You don't have to mention IT when you're showing bias against women in the workplace full-stop. Meh, getting shades of "someone is wrong on the internet"[xkcd]. I don't think this thread is going anywhere productive. It's probably down to cultural differences, saying that most women don't want to think about their future careers because they are women in a culture which values financial independence sounds a lot like bias against women, and certainly doesn't jibe with my experiences.

      "As far as I'm concerned, that counts as showing a negative attitude towards women." Well that's fair enough, if that is your opinion. Nothing to argue about, just different viewpoints. The 3boobs women are not IT workers, though (not that I know, anyway).
