I've never met these elusive mysterious men in the software industry that are negative towards women, or towards the idea of women working in the software industry. I have however met plenty of women (high school era mostly) who were very negative about the software industry because it "is not about people" and involves "sitting at a desk all day". So I guess these same women today just work some other desk job that just pays half as much, so they complain about gender income inequality. Don't want to be sexist here; I would strongly encourage anyone (male or female) to work in our exciting industry. I just don't think men are more to blame for the imbalance than women.
