So, mocking someone without knowing their gender keeps women (and not men) out of tech. How does that make sense? I'm honestly curious.

  Arguable Steve's actions would keep any novice out of tech, regardless of body parts. Which is a fairly plausible scenario since he didn't know her gender, as he said (I think). Important: Not saying she is a novice.

    I think the number of edits you had to just make to prevent your comment from being potentially offensive makes my point that you're all being weirdly oversensitive internet white knights.

      I've been conditioned to avoid fights that I don't feel like fighting in this industry. That's coupled with a pretty good knack for how someone is going to read a comment (but I failed elsewhere in this thread, if you look for name). Not sure that makes me a white knight.
