You are suggesting to silence the opinions you don't like, don't you see the problem with this?

discuss

order

Obviously no, I don't. And I don't suggest silencing them, I suggest making them discuss it elsewhere (not here on HN).

Also I suggest that all of this can be discussed, just in a couple of years -- once our industry (programmers, startup entrpreneurs) reaches 60/40 or, hell, at least 70/30.

EDIT: in reply to the reply to this. same way as it happened in every other industry that got closer to parity. (example: medical industry, legal industry, MBA's, etc.)

And how is that going to happen without forcing young women to do something they don't want to do in lieu of something they do want to do?

Remember that the more egalitarian and advanced the society, the more the genders self-segregate into different professions.
