Anatomy Of An Incident

Here's the TL;DR:

A male programmer comments on the shortage of women in programming and suggests possible reasons.

A female technologist replies, in essence saying, "It's mansplaining, girls, ignore him", but without addressing the original topic. My favorite quote from her reply: "After all, what we really need, in this situation, is a white man to tell us what things are and what should be done about it."

Will the real racist/sexist please stand up?

I look forward to a time when a person's ideas matter more than his or her gender. But to get there, we will have to address and correct the pervasive atmosphere of sexism, especially the self-righteous and apparently unconscious variety exhibited by women, against their best interests. I look forward to a day when women figure out that blaming men for everything makes them look petty and childish.

She: "Oh, what do you know? You're a man!"
