You know... there's a lot of writing about that too. You're presenting a false choice, and then suggesting a theory that doesn't really have any basis but suggests that people writing about problems are actually part of the problem they're trying to solve.

I know women who have great experiences in math and computer science. I don't think any of them haven't had their experience at least partially colored by male privilege.



yeah, it's a difficult topic. probably shouldn't have put forward that "theory." should've just been like this guy ( http://www.infoq.com/presentations/culture-hacking-singapore ) and said, "we want women," in block capitals.
