How blasé of you to think it's "as simple" as "they don't like it". They don't like it? Take a look (or don't) at the org charts for any 20 tech companies that are past Series A funding. You will find that most of the execs are white men, most (not all, thankfully!) female leadership is in HR or PeopleOps, and any exec presence from non-Asian ethnic groups are for the company's diversity efforts (and we all know how HN feels about those). I've been doing this tech thing for a while. It is extremely difficult to find folks at the top that look like me (a black Latino). Hell, it is difficult to find folks in leadership positions that look like me in almost any industry except government. Women still get stomped over in meetings by men who have something to say, and women who challenge that are perceived as "cold." No, it is not that simple.
