One trick I find helpful is reversing the results of a study and seeing if I still believe it.

This article leaves one with the impression that women are 'better' at coding. So, using the above trick, do i believe men are 'better' at coding than women? Nope. Nor do I believe the opposite. So on that basis alone one should be very skeptical about this link.

I was referring specifically to this site. Outside of reddit and maybe youtube comments I don't remember seeing any offensive comments lately. Maybe it's time to move to some better sites!

No, I'm not trolling you.
