I think it's important to have more women in computing and the industry, starting from the education pipeline. Too many women enter tech through career shifts rather than climbing their way up from a CS program and this sometimes exacerbate cultural differences. More girls need to be pushed towards hard computer science subjects like algorithms and machine learning, rather than the easier programs like human computer interaction. Otherwise the tech culture at the highest level of engineering will be too insular. One big problem in American tech is that "diversity" surveys are done by gender rather than sex, and what appears "diverse" on paper isn't necessarily the same in practice. If you want to get rid of the "bro" culture and sexism, then get more high achieving women who can lead by example. A man wearing a skirt is great for HR diversity metrics but useless for encouraging more women to go into tech. We need to get rid of the culture where gender minorities are used as props for tokenism. There are plenty of high achieving women mathematicians physicists and traditional engineers. For some reason computing and software engineering are just not that appealing to girls. A lot of what OP is complaining about is just good old fashioned toxicity and workplace politics. Switching the genders won't change anything. Go into healthcare and education where it's women-dominated, and you will hear the exact same complaints.
