>Why are companies with female % that is similar to the female CS graduate % considered sexist but a company that overhires female engineers (to such a degree as to be suspicious of sexism) is seen as diverse?

Nobody said that except you, which betrays your agenda.

Good engineering talent is in short supply and has been for two decades now. It certainly won't do any harm to explore alternate recruiting channels.

Go on - tell us what is his agenda?

There is always an opportunity cost. Exploring alternative recruiting channels means not utilizing recruiting channels that have been optimized to find talent regardless of race/gender.

>Nobody said that except you, which betrays your agenda.

Articles that state that software engineering companies are sexist because they don't have a 50/50 gender split are very commonplace.

My agenda is not being discriminated based on my race or gender fyi.

I'm with ergo, you should explain your assumptions.
