Comment on I am a Female Sole Founder with no Dev Experience… Yeah, it’s a Tough Roadparent

Comments

I'm a girl, back in school to study comp sci, and I actually agree with you.

If I get hired, I want to know it's because my tech-fu is the best. I don't ever want it to be because I hit the right combo of nice rack and not totally incompetent.

I think there's a fundamental problem which is resulting in a lack of women in tech, but the useful discussion isn't about women in tech, it's about how we incorporate tech and business into the education system. By the time we're hiring or finding a partner, gender should be a non-issue. The fact that less women than men are going into the most interesting, lucrative and potentially challenging facet of society is an interesting conundrum though.

For what it's worth, I'm a beer-loving, bipolar, ADHD human with ladyparts and mathematically pleasing proportions. :P
