When people see a tech company that's 90% male, they say "Oh well, men and women are different, that's the explaination."

So where are the places which are 90% women? Why isn't politics 90% women. Instead it's about ~20% and that's after years of campaigning & activism.

Nursing, teaching. I'm sure there are others, especially if you look at industries and not companies, HR for instance.
Dental hygienists (98%), Occupational therapists (92%), nurses (~92%)[1].
