ITT: likely male HN users weighing in on how difficult or not difficult it is to be a woman in the tech industry.

I'd love to hear thoughts on this take about just how inclusive the tech industry from women, or LGBTA or BiPoC individuals.

I'm a third generation "woman in tech" (grandma did punch cards, mom did COBOL) and I haven't had any problems that I keep being told I'm supposed to have. I suspect discrimination is location specific. The most I get is the annoying "you guys..." pause to think "...and gal".

(PSA: "you guys" is gender neutral)

Unfortunately Hacker News might not be the best place to solicit that opinion, given the demographics of its users…
