That's fair. I do believe that in an ideal world, everyone's barrier to entry into any profession would be equal removing all factors except merit. While that's obviously not possible, I do think it's worthwhile to work towards that. I also think that it can be worthwhile to make it known to women that tech and other career paths are viable and not out of reach for them - as I'm sure some women just have never considered it just as I have never seriously considered becoming a nurse. However, I think that's where it should stop. Make it known that it's an option, make it so that if they choose to pursue it that it's no more difficult for them than it would be if they were a man, and then let it be.
Anything more and it becomes the individual(s) behind the movement projecting their desires onto others and is no different that the societal molding that's taken place for the past several decades.
