That's not true though, the various gender gaps have been discussed here endlessly. I'm baffled when anyone says there's not enough discussion of these things when they dominated HN for months at a time.
What there isn’t a lot of discussion of is how the space functions in a holistic sense for women, but so it goes for other groups as well. I don’t think “more discussion” is what this situation is lacking, though I couldn’t tell you what it is.
