I don't find any difference in men and women having some advantage in efficiency or design taste besides what they probably were encouraged to do while being dependent on their parents. It's just stupid and unfair to hardline their future at that stage and later judge them by their gender while judging their employability or contribution. I'm happy some project and companies do care about that, because I encountered a lot of women being way better than me or their men coworkers in their lines of work due to their curiosity, responsibility and effort put into projects. I'd probably be happy if some successful start up would employ a women-only team to counter bigots and be succesful at that. And I can only cheer to parents who encourage their girls to try engineering, IT stuff and supporting them if they get interested in that.
So counter sexism with more sexism?
Everywhere I've worked people who are sexist get pushed to the side. It's simply not tolerated when work needs doing, and expertise is what matters.
I don't care what your dangly bits are, or who you screw. Why is that even part of any conversation about making widgets better, or more efficiently?
I've worked with people who love to talk politics at work, I can't fucking stand it, on any side. It's not related to what we're doing, so keep your fucking opinions to yourself, and focus on the job at hand. Your politics only interfere with what the rest of the team is trying to accomplish.
I don't understand you.
