I think this is one thing the whole debate over the last week has taught me to ensure I am always critically thinking about anything that it is all down to people's perceptions - they are going to be completely different to mine.
For example, I tweeted this very article a couple of hours ago - and I've had people tell me it's nothing but "simultaneously trolling one side of an argument while patting the backs of the other side" to "thoughtfully written and makes a some worthwhile points, but also a lot therein to disagree with" and even "some good points, but do we really need to play the "but women aren't predisposed to technology" card?"
An article like this, and the events that happened themselves - everyone is going to view it with their own rose-tinted glasses, and no one is going to be happy.
