The industry is indeed sexist, against men. Plenty of evidence of discriminatory hiring and promotion practices out there that disadvantage men in favour of women, in an attempt to "fix" this imbalance. People like you who claim the exact opposite is happening either aren't working in the same industry or have deluded themselves with ideology.
The claim that women aren't interested in tech isn't toxic sexism, it's obvious everyday common sense everywhere except the most extreme "blue" communities in America. All you have to do to know this is spend time around women in a social context and try to talk to them about technology. The vast majority will happily admit they don't care, don't want to care and are much happier when someone else is dealing with technology for them. This is true of girls who are 8 and grandparents of 80. None of this is any more radical a statement than saying men are less interesting in clothes and handbags than women.
Contrarian logic sucks. Rationalism isn't all it's cracked up to be. It sucks all the life out of the air for minorities.
Logic isn't racist. People are racist.
