Then why aren’t single women dominant in tech? You seem to have the assumptions : 1) women are uniformly incentivized against making the most money for their time possible 2) women have children 3) women are married 4) … to men Etc. Given women were very prevalent in tech until about the advent of the home computer maybe the fact home computers were only marketed to and for boys and the computer was installed in the boys room?

> women are uniformly incentivized against making the most money for their time possible What makes you assume men and women are working the same amount of time? Labor statistics show that men work more overtime and women are more likely to work part time. Which fits the hypothesis that men are socially judged more by their breadwinning and women are socially judged more by things like having the flexible time to be a good mom. > … to men I'm taking about statistical trends, nobody said all women are married to men, but lesbians are a tiny minority compared to straight women. Even if all lesbians adopted masculine gender roles, that wouldn't change the fact that the majority of women follow female gender roles.

> why aren’t single women dominant in tech? Because single women are equally subject to workplace hostility: men "don't discriminate" when we discriminate.
