I always hear how badly women are treated in SW engineering and yet in 15 years I've only seen sexist comments twice and on one occasion had a personal discussion with the guy and tried to explain it's not ok. I don't doubt it's happening, but at the same time I'm tired of the media and other activists beating the drum of female rights (and those of other gazillions of minorities) and rubbing my face in the fact that my gender is bad and my race is bad every damn time. I was reading a book about feminism in Germany and the whole movement jumped the shark and now they're trying to paint being male as something undesirable and actively pursue a strategy of positive discrimination for women. This is exactly what's happening in the US and many other countries with minority rights movements - they're lashing out at white men as the root of all evil, harming essentially random people. Activists latched on to a strategy of shaming and silencing so-called opponents which is already starting to badly back-fire (as it rightly should).
