I didn't mention sexism or imply gender prejudice, because I don't believe that's what happened here.
I ran this by a female developer for sanity checking, and I like what she came back with: "Transgendered people don't make up 50% of the population. Women do. Female software developers make up 18% of the industry, so if you're not getting 18% women interested in working for/with you, you have a communication problem."
For the record, I have no idea how many of the people on their roster identify as transgendered, and neither do you.

Are you also disappointed that there aren't any transgendered experts listed?
Diversity is great, yes, but can we please stop suggesting that there is sexism happening here?

Edit: This is my complete misreading of the situation. I genuinely apologize.
