As a white Canadian software developer, my opinion on the disparity with tech jobs (we have it over here as well) will be lost. What if I turned the conversation towards the best jobs in Canada though?

If you could please video Fancy Kristen when she has her butler slap you, that would be great. Thanks.

Tyler, like a lot of rich guys back then, remarried after his wife died. So he had a son when he was 63 (1853 or early 1854). Then his son did the same thing at age 70 and 75. The grandsons are 93 and 89.

Well, he said biology is part of it, not the whole, or even primary cause. He cited extensive research supporting some of his points. I completely understand that people may disagree with him, but if that’s the case they should make a detailed response with their own citations backing up their views. That is the…

I think it’s women choose not to pursue coding work b/c of those factors...not that they can’t...b/c obviously some do.

I would just say that testosterone doesn’t make men irrationally choose terrible jobs. But, it may be a significant factor in them choosing to devote themselves differently to work, seek the trappings of work in order to meet their ultimate need of providing. This is why they take dangerous jobs or jobs that take…

but also,... women can’t handle stress.

or rather choose not to

other data on gender wage-gap issues shows that women routinely choose versions of their jobs that afford a better work/life balance. this skews the data because, for example, cut-throat corporate law firms pay WAY more than in-house law jobs where you…

This is a weird and silly argument. Would you agree men are less inclined to work in low prestige jobs (e.g. retail sales)? Is that, uh, misogynist or simply a reflection on how male self-worth is gauged against their earning potential? Mostly, it should be noted, as a reaction to the expectations of their spouses.…

Wow, how did you get that out of his writings? He’s arguing that having seperate programs to help one sex is discrimination against the other sex and that the goal of 50/50 representation will be very costly and not possible.

Did any of you even read his manifesto? He went to great pains to NOT conclude the very things you guys say he did. He merely was saying that you cannot expect a sampling of technical people to be 50/50 male to female (representing the population) when the *slight* biological difference will skew these numbers, and…

He also said this:

You sure are making a lot of assumptions about me can I see your psychology degree as I am curious to how you can tell how I feel deep down from a simple forum post... 

I find more and more, it’s best keeping thoughts like this to yourself. Even out of work where your friends could still be adverse to those feelings. You should be able to speak your mind with real friends without too many repercussions but that day is fading very fast.

No, he said women don’t want to code because its shit work with long hours and high stress and the rewards of money and status aren’t as enticing to people who don’t feel the need to be seen as better than their peers and know that money doesn’t bring additional happiness beyond a certain point (which is less than…

Well you got me there.

More and more, employment at a large employer will be contingent on ideological conformity. I think that’s a very bad thing...

I am a white male in the tech industry, I can only speak from my experiences but the representation of minorities and women in tech in the professional setting seems to fall in place with the percentages of those minorities and women who study tech in college. When I was in college, there were two women in the entire…

An extreme lack of people who have actually read the text here. Either you are full-fledged ideologs who won’t accept another viewpoint than your own, or you actually think that any critique against social constructionism is automatically sexist. I don’t know which is scarier.

To point out that women and men in general…

“This guy is part of a culture in “sciences and technology” that is predominately male, seeking to twist facts to ensure that those in power stay in power and that he maintains his advantage.” Did you even read his manifesto? Explain to me how this guy did any of that? All he called for was an open debate, if you…

Men Have Always Used ‘Science’ to Explain Why They’re *Different* Than Women.
