Ask HN: What do female HN members feel about sexism in the community?

The recent events regarding Adria Richards brings to light an issue that many members of the tech industry and I have noticed. There is a significant amount of institutional sexism in the industry, and I wanted to find out what women in the industry thought about it and what their experiences have been. I think it's a good time for us to take an introspective look and discuss problems and potential solutions.
