Let's not forget the times when the "token female" on the team doesn't have
*time* to learn new tech stuff, because it's assumed that being female, part
of her duties are making the coffee....typing the letters....buying the
boss's wife's birthday present.

Yes, things are much better on that front than they were 15 years ago, but
anyone who thinks that means it doesn't happen anymore is dreaming.

Aahhh... maybe I can better make my case this time without arguing.  Many
women are
disinterested precisely because they have been taught since they were little
girls
that they just aren't supposed to be interested.  If you are conditioned to
believe
something long enough you eventually take it as the gospel truth.
