Oh wait, sorry. I was confusing a situation I made up in my mind with reality.
Anyway, I don't think anyone on the Internet cares what gender you are. Women just don't seem to be that interested in programming.
As for, "Women just don't seem to be..." types of generalizations... not a place I'd like to go. The same is sometimes generalized about people of my ethnicity; but that doesn't reduce my wish to be received with respect and consideration.
Do take a look at all the (women) signatories at the bottom of one of the linked articles in original post. [Several links seem to have gone dead in just the last half hour.]
If they were interested, they would be actively participating.
Guess what? so can my boyfriend!
