Point 1 and 2 shows why hiring based on gender instead of merit is a bad idea. It would have been way better for the author of this post to have been turned down by the diversity seekers and found a company that was looking for someone with her skillset and personality instead. Point 3 is such a stupid thing to say. I don't know about reporting him for it, how about just telling him that he is stupid and condescending? That would work in Sweden at least, maybe there is a different work culture in USA. Point 4 is actually true, proved scienctifically, and has nothing to do with discrimination. Due to differences in the brain that we are born with, men are on average more interested in technology than women. That does not mean that you can point to a specific women and draw the conclusion that because she is a women she is less suited to work in tech than a man. It does however explain why more men than female study computer science for example. Yes, I'm sure phenomens like computer games biased towards male might enhance this, but even without it you would see the differences.
