I was in a bit of a rush so I didn't reply properly earlier.
What I meant to say is that it isn't the men who are responsible for the lack of women enrolling in comp sci. Everywhere young girls turn, they are told to be pretty, nurturing and sexist (yes, sexist.) Including if not exclusively from their mothers and aunts. They are taught that their value comes from their relationship with a man. So when I say it isn't men, I mean it's the family, extended family and the community which reinforce gender stereotypes.
I would hope that an engineer mindset would use the "5 why" rule instead of the "DUHH BLAME THE IDIOT"
