This article is bad directed. If there were about 40% of women doing IT-related studies but only 10% working in IT every year it would be clearly explained by the bad culture exposed that some of those IT companies have, but that's not the reality. I don't think it matters a good or a bad working culture for the amount of people studying something, and if this were true, there would be a lot less persons studying bachelors in law or English, for example. On the other hand let's look other places, like the North of Europe, where university education is free, there are a high level of work culture quality, there are pretty progressive about men and women having same kind of jobs, and they lack those nerd and bro cultures the article talk: Why don't they have a 50/50 (or a 60/40) rate of men/women? With that I don't want to belittle the importance of those questions, and how bad are for the women, for the industry, and for the society in general, but also think this isn't the only thing that avoid women entering in that world. I'm not a woman and there are for sure details I don't know about all of this, and asking those who don't picked an IT career and are interested in tech is surely will give us more answers.
