Honestly I think the main reason we don't see more women in tech is because of the school system and the media portrayal of women. Women don't go into tech or science because those are "guy professions", at least according to movies/tv shows/magazines etc. Hell, some of the negative stereotypes the media pushes about tech/science are enough to even scare off a lot of the men.

What sexism exists that's connected to tech is usually from either marketing (E.G. booth babes), or associated cultures like the gaming culture (driven sadly by a lot of 12-16 year old males), or sports culture (Think Madden 2013 or whatever the current year is). There is the brogramming phenomena, but I think that's largely blown out of proportion, and something that I'd frankly love to see stamped out anyway (and arguably just an extension of sports/gaming culture).

Hell... a bunch of people constantly screaming about the infestation of sexist pigs in the tech industry is probably scaring off a lot of people too.
