Interesting, I came out of this article thinking the author is both sexist and a narcissist. Sexist, because she attributes the failings of the industry to the failings of the male gender. Narcissistic, because this whole article is written directly from her perspective, as if she just disregarded that other perspectives exist.

This is all fine, because it's her article and we can all do as we will, but I really cannot understand how you think this point is reasonably made.

Wait until you read the author's follow-up post on their Mastodon:

>Just a PSA: No, I won't be providing you data to prove that design has been viewed as women's work and thus anything related to design that touches development work (like web design!) has been eroded and chipped off from the block of knowledge you're expected to know. I'm tired. Do your own homework.

>"what data do you have" Me, bitch. I'm the data.

So, "Web design sucks cause of men. Source: trust me bro". Hard to believe anyone would think this could be taken seriously.
