I’ve gone Galt when it comes to working with women. Zero altruism for them. They are on their own. I’ve watch too many incompetent women use their “socializing skills” to work their way up. I’m a sixty year old programmer/mathematician. I’ve met only one woman mathematician who could pull her weight; I’ve never met a woman programmer that could.
I knew a couple. One was a Ukrainian woman who came to the U.S.A. after the fall of the Soviet Empire. She didn't talk much English, much of the time searching for the right English words for conversation. An excellent programmer, I asked what her job was back home. Nuclear physicist. I meekly said "Oh...". Another was a Chinese woman who had difficulty writing in English so I helped her in writing memos and such. The natives here in the U.S.A., not so many excellent woman programmers. Maybe a culture deficit here in how girls are taught.
