Sad that you're being downvoted[1]. People seem to think we can force a ratio and "win" in this scenario, it seems to be their goal. I never want a 1:1 ratio to be the goal.

I want equality. I want all women and men to have the jobs they desire. If that ends up 1.5 men for every woman in tech, that's okay! If it ends up with 2 women for every man that's okay!

Equality is not about the numbers. Focusing on the numbers will only lead to furthering equality issues.

1: were being downvoted at the time of my writing this, atleast heh.

edit: Sad that the people downvoting don't have the courage to discuss it on a forum. Be bigger, explain your points.. if you have any.

It's a divisive issue that people are very sensitive to, and if someone perceives your point as wrong, they will just downvote you. Deal with it, or don't comment on threads about sexism if you can't. Complaining about it is unlikely to make it better, and will only result in more downvotes.

Eh, the downvotes weren't that bad. I wasn't complaining about the downvotes, as much as people acting in the manner you describe. I don't think i have it in me to not comment on that, just as they seem to not have it in them to attempt to silence the opposition heh.
