Excuse me? Those tweets triggered me, my rage that is. The men in my life were very encouraging to me. I wanted to get into cyber security and they were like go for it. Heck, one of my male professors agreed to be my mentor for my research project and I was allowed to have complete control over the project. Unless you have a horror story to share with the rest of the class and are actively in the STEM fields or at least pursuing a degree in it, then these people need to STFU

I don't think Wu has even actually worked in a STEM field, not counting her own "development" studio for oh-so-many reasons. She didn't pursue a degree in the field, she's never worked for a company prior to her studio, she never seems to "talk shop", I never see her talking about trips to a convention for programming or anything. Her even pretending to know anything about what it's like to be working in this fields should be offensive to the people who are in them.

Like Dobson she sees herself as more of an idea person.

That is what pisses me off. I don't want people assuming I am gonna be a drama source because of my gender thanks to these whiners who are not even in my field.
 
Not really Wu but retweeted by her and I got triggered:

Considering that I have spent all of my career actively encouraging young women to go into STEM fields - as well as knowing many outstanding people who are doing the same thing - these people need to shut the FUCK up. Is tech still male-dominated? Yes. Are people doing anything about it? Much more so than these fucking Twitter samurai.

Honestly I'm pretty sure the reason women don't go into fields like tech on average because they just don't tend to have interest in them. It's just an example of the natural differences between boys and girls. I don't agree with encouraging people to go into any specific field, if they don't wanna go into tech they aren't gonna go, and if they do they will, we don't need gender quotas.

Yes, girls are repeatedly told not to enter STEM -- by feminists. They think the field is full of rape apes or something.

Yeah I imagine some women are being scared away because of the bullshit "this field is filled with RAPISTS". They just wanna push more women out of those fields to help support their "x field is a male dominated space" narrative.

Same reason these feminists push against women defending themselves against rape, and instead push to teach boys not to rape (as if they don't already know that, as if actual rapists care if rape is right or wrong). They want more and more women to get raped by discouraging them from learning self defense so they can more easily sell that precious "rape culture" narrative.

To clarify, what I meant by "encouraging" was not forcing girls to go into STEM; rather, if a girl showed a strong aptitude for STEM subjects and interests, then I would encourage them as to their options available and reinforce their passions if they felt that things were getting "too hard" (a sadly common sentiment among female students especially, but also in male students). No, I don't believe in forcing anyone into a field either, but I do believe in promoting it to people from underrepresented groups and subsequently helping them along when the interest takes them.

How can it be a "natural" difference if stem fields don't exist in nature? You make it look like women are biological wired to be not interested in tech fields.

To some extent this is actually true though. It stems back to the very early years of human evolution where men who did the majority of the hunting/warfare were required as a matter of survival to be able to quickly anazlyze their surroundings and draw conclusions, whereas women who by and large stayed within the safety of the tribe didn't have to rely on critical thinking as much.

It has to do with what types of things women and men are, on average (not ALL), pre-dispositioned to have interest in. Obviously, tech jobs didn't exist in nature, but it has to do with the deeper reasoning's as to why people have interest in doing these things in the first place.

Just because something did not originally exist in nature does not mean that everyone will react to it exactly the same once it does come into existence.
 
Uhm are you telling me that women aren't that interested in stem fields because their ancestors weren't hunting thousands of years ago? And what about all the women who are successful in stem fields? Does that mean their ancestors were hunters?

Sorry if it sounds stupid but this is the weird conclusion I draw by reading your post.

Not at all. I'm simply explaining the disparity through the perspective of anthropology and evolutionary biology, its not meant to be taken as an all encompassing statement. On average men have far more muscle mass than women, but that doesnt mean that 120 pound male weaklings don't exist or that a women isn't capable of having more muscle mass than a man.
