As a population, women ARE worse than men at tech jobs.

It's amazing how poorly the ideas of elementary statistics are understood, in particular, mean and variance.

When time allows, individuals should be evaluated for who they are, and what their capabilities are. But, when you are making population level decisions, you have to take population characteristics into account, or you waste a lot of effort.

A lot of “tech jobs” have very little to do with socializing. They’re science and fact driven. Things are either true or not, driving toward a solution. Men enjoy this sanity. Women often crave the more socially interacting jobs. This is why they’re more dominant in teaching & nursing.

...but I love how the “systemic patriarchy” results with far more men in prison than women, it must be because of discrimination, yet I don’t see women fighting to correct this ;p
