I can honestly say I have never heard the word &quot;brogrammer&quot;<p>Anyway, I like how this article has a lot of facts. I dislike many other things.<p>Diversity is great, it is an awesome thing to have, promote and embrace. But you can only do so much to force it. At some point, if females choose to stay out of tech, thats their choice. If they choose to get into tech thats great too. The fundamental idea of forcing society to change to have a higher proportion of women employed in &quot;STEM&quot; jobs is absurd.<p>Personally, I know quite a few women (a much higher proportion than men) who went through STEM programs in highschool only to go into bio or environmental Engineering.
Guess what? There aren&#x27;t all that many jobs in those fields compared to more traditional tech&#x2F;generic engineering roles.  Some of them left their respective fields within a year for that reason alone
