Fascinating that this gets 16 upvotes but the entire hashtag YesAllWomen gets nearly nothing. I'd argue it's because it fits into the prevailing norm on hacker news that there is no gender problem in stem.
The aim of this piece was to try and highlight the benefits to being a woman in STEM. I do not think there are no gender problems in STEM, and I hope some of the people who read this post look the linked articles about the numerous issues that women face. It is upsetting that #YesAllWomen didn't get more up-votes here on hacker news.
