The logic that men are to blame for the lack of women in CS is mind-boggling. Take some responsibility for yourself. Stop putting the blame on others.

- chris_wot 14y agoI didn't say that "men are to blame for the lack of women in CS". I said that sexist comments don't encourage more women to enter into computing. That would include women making sexist remarks or abusing hostility to other women. I do hope I have un-boggled your mind. Not sure what sort of responsibility I need to bear here, incidentally. I'm certainly saying that if you make IT hostile or women you bear some of the blame for the lack of women partaking in it. Oh, it might help to note that I'm male, and I'm in IT.
- cheez 14y agoI have been working professionally for 10 years. In every single place I have worked, women are treated with equal respect. Are there idiots out there? Yes. But STOP BLOWING THIS SHIT OUT OF PROPORTION. You're worse than the feminists.
- wonderzombie 14y agoIn every single place I have worked, women are treated with equal respect. You're a dude, right? How the heck would you know? Most of this crap is directed at women. A priori means means you're going to miss out on a very, very large subset. This plus the fact that you're convinced it's blown out of proportion suggests mind-bogglingly large confirmation and selection bias. Frankly, in the context of this comment, your suggestion that anybody is worse than the feminists is a compliment.
