I never said the article itself was disriminatory. I just pulled out specific lines that made my blood boil. The tone of "tech is hard" made me angry. Why? because I don't find tech hard. I like tech and I know many other women who do.
Historically, women have been told that they are delicate creatures, that higher learning was too much work for them, that math and science are "too hard"; this is why the continual propegation of 'xyz is hard for women' pushes my buttons.
