I didn't think I'd need to quote his actual words, but that's where we are:

> Whether it’s explicit gender bias or not, it’s important to recognize that people are afraid to speak up about how they feel for fear of getting dog-piled on by a bunch of “real” developers. That needs to change.

Sounds like you both might be right? You’re both quoting more than commentating. It looks like both of you feel the quotes can speak for themselves.
I don't know how useful a discussion of gender bias can be if everybody's misrepresenting what people say.
That’s a fair point (as was your point earlier), and I won’t refute it.

Based on the tone of everything else written by Frost and Pickering here, I’m not taking each sentence most charitably.
