This attitude is both hateful and harmful to our profession. It is not ok and I wish more of our peers would step up to tell you that this is not acceptable.

You are also making wildly inaccurate statements to justify your abuse and I hate to think that other readers might accept them uncritically. We have been actively pushing women out of computer science for the past 30 years (and doing a fine job or excluding and ignoring the contributions of other minority groups in the process). Suggesting that men "were" dominant and misrepresenting the direction of this change in willful ignorance of history at best.

I know relying to trolls is not particularly effective and other users have called this out for being hateful but I don't want to see us accept either the premises or the tone presented here.
