Now you are trolling. Or do you have a source for that? It seems highly unlikely that a programming community would have such a high percentage of women.

I would link to wikipedia for some verification of that feeling but all I could fine were biased feminist articles on that topic.

This is the problem with the programming community we need to fix.

For posterity: I edited my comment to clarify my statement prior to seeing this comment.

Half of all people are women. !caucasians and !males are probably at least 30% of the industry, especially when you consider how minorities are overrepresented.

Since we're not citing any source, I'll say that population X is at least Y% of the industry.
