Wow. You are reading way too much into my statement. I was just trying to voice encouragement. Why don't you try to be more supportive?

  "Supportive" is not necessarily good. I am "supportive" of things I think are a good idea. I am not "supportive" of things I think are a bad idea. Maybe you meant something like "I'm glad women are succeeding in technology," rather than "I want people to lower their standards for what's worth reporting, when they report on women, so we'll hear more about women even though the technology industry is disproportionately male." But what you were saying is much closer to the last one. If you want women to achieve more, for whatever reason, that's fine, but that's not the sentiment you expressed.

    "Supportive" means in the sense of "supporting" reporting any type of publication that aims to increase the awareness of women or any minority in the technology sector. Whether you think the publication has to meet certain "standards" is entirely subjective and based upon your individual worldview.
