    Honestly, no. I am working in programming. There are no women. We both know why and the answer is sexism.

    But even on the way into the job, I have only twice experience someone telling a woman to not do IT that was when I was a student. 1. A classmate, and everyone gave him a lot of shit for it. Seriously, I don’t think he had a friend in the class afterwards. 2. A father telling his daughter. And there I jumped in and challenged him on it.

    It is difficult to spot sexism in a different department.


    If you don’t mind what do you mean that you understand now how people can believe sexism isn’t an issue?

    I want to stress that it is an issue, I just have a difficult time believing some of the shit because it seems so comical to me. What kind of person is that way?
