I agree with his thesis to an extent, but further down in the article:
"The Newsweek piece features a company I personally invested in, Glassbreakers, a peer mentorship community for women."
...
"Men, we need to support companies like Glassbreakers that are providing solutions to the gender problem."
Is the author using this very real problem of the margination of women in tech as a sales pitch for a company he's invested in?
