While I understand what you are saying, it isnt a fair assertion as some men are very much on fire not every male has the same perceived privileges afforded to the "straight white male" stereo type.


Maybe, but not because they're men.

I'd love to see more people from blue collar backgrounds in tech, since I think we have much more in common with carpentry than we'd like to admit. Men fit within that venn diagram of exclusion. But not because they're men.


We have a winner.


I think people are getting confused about whats being spoken about here, this isnt a discussion about women being in tech this is about women being founders in tech.

Being a founder is a very small % of the total people working in tech, what I am saying is there are plenty of people from both genders that could benefit from same sex networking functions, I am not arguing against the female targeted events.

Equating the imbalance of gender ratios to the endangered species list of animals is disingenuous.
