I don't actually hold this opinion, because I don't know the truth of it, but I remember reading a comment about women in tech that entertained the idea of why there isn't many women in tech. The opinion was that women are more socially aware than men. CS/tech with its mainstream stereotypes of nerds wasn't something that most women wanted to be associated with. If I entertained the thought put forth by this TC article, I can perhaps predict an influx of women in CS/tech due to it becoming more "socially acceptable", because of the changing stereotypes. An oversimplification, but entertaining nonetheless.
