>Don't bring this up on HN.
What? Why? This is interesting. As a woman the only thing that offends me in "tech" is people who don't treat me as a person, but rather as a "woman in tech." I am person. I am just as good as you. I don't need some strong man to protect me from the big, scary world of the impolite hentai-masturbating nerds. Throwaway since I want to tell you to go fuck yourself. Yes, even women know those words, thank you very much.
- ramesh31 5y agoIt's not just a question of male/female, but of inclusiveness. As a minority, I see the same thing. The problem with tech is the white/asian male dominated frat house culture that pervades it from the point of college all the way to large companies. And anything that perpetuates that is unwelcome in a professional environment in my opinion.
