Interesting observation. I live and work in NYC. When I read about all of the sexism and misogyny in tech it sounds completely different from the tech scene I know and work in. I've long suspected that a lot of those stories are trumped up by "journalists" who want to write stories about the tech gender gap because it's a trendy topic and it affords them the opportunity to use the term "brogrammer" in a sentence. However, I wonder if maybe the Silicon Valley tech culture is significantly more assholey than the tech culture in NYC. Several months ago I went to the south bay for a job interview. The people who interviewed me seemed nice, if not cut throat. However, I was rather shocked by some of the people I met at the hotel. They were very smug and had extremely entitled attitudes. A few of them were very happy to share with me the fact that they own multiple homes, although I didn't ask them. One guy straight up told me he doesn't like blacks and hispanics. This comment was made at the hotel rooftop pool. It was not a private conversation and the man didn't seem to even fathom that I might have found that offensive. Then again, it was a ritzy hotel in the most expensive part of that town. I might meet similar people if I stayed at the St. Regis in NYC for a few days. So IDK, are Silicon Valley types ass trumpets?
