I remember reading Malcom Gladwell describing how the time of year that you were born affected the chances of you ending up as a professional sportsmen.

Yet schools never seem to take into account the different development rates of girls vs boys which massively advantages girls. Then combine it with a majority of female teachers who understand how girls learn much better; and further combine it with the relative decline of play and sports and the school becomes a very hostile place for boys very quickly.

When the boy leaves the school and goes into the workplace and is confronted by all sorts of women in tech organisation but not men in tech (or the like) they immediately are made to feel that there is less space in the workplace for them.

I would honestly hate to be a boy growing up today and am very glad I have a daughter rather than a son.

Even if there are more women in tech now than before, they are by no means outnumbering men, much less dominant in tech to where you can't find any men.
