Unless you have solid proof that male programmers are more machist than male surgeons, male lawyers or male financial experts, all fields that have seen a major influx of women in the past decades, we are in agreement that that is definitely not the thing that keeps women away from becoming programmers.

I am not saying nothing bad in that respect ever happened to a woman in the tech industry, I am saying that the tech industry is not an example of a hostile place to women that prevents them to be successful or accepted.
