Only 28% of software developers are women, so it’s impossible for all of tech to get to 50%. The only way to actually get 50% representation is by promoting tech careers to women, or by barring jobs/training to men

In my university not too long ago, my classes were maybe 14% women? May have been slightly more in others, but I remember counting at one point

We need to stop accusing companies of being sexist, they are bending over backwards to try to be the ones who get closer to 50%, which reduces the available female talent pool for other companies.

All these sexism allegations are completely toxic

The fix comes from outreach towards teen and preteen girls to convince them to consider stem. I’ve attended lectures on this
