If someone did a 'gay computer scientist' AMA I'd be interested because it's a specific person talking about their experiences - just like most AMAs are. If someone asked why that mattered - I would really wonder why they bothered to click - just move on. I'm very interested in what women at MIT experience so the fact that people were so aggressive about a headline does point out a gender issue. And maybe the question is a real one. Maybe they really don't understand that women have different experiences in the science/tech field than men. If you care at all to have more women speaking out about their experiences in tech and on reddit, than telling them they're doing it wrong is probably not going to help.
