Isn't the feminist argument that men DON'T cry enough? That our social reinforcement of toxic masculinity has coerced men from their first breath as newborns into concealing their emotions away from everyone else and bottling them up even to the point of a nervous breakdown?

It should be.
>>
Because a man will code faster and a girl most likely only code if she is good at it besides that there are way more men coding so its more likely that lots of shits get through bringing our score down tests like these do not count and are pure shit cancer emily

Put 100 females vs males cs students against eachother and give me those results

Gives new meaning to the term pull rug, amirite?

Also, if there were fewer women and it just happened that more of those women got accepted and fewer men within the sample were accepted, wouldnt that mean that the women were at about even numbers and that this is just a perspective with a cheap agenda?

Please tell me this is an joke.

I think they are confusing all of us who crossdress while programming desu senpai

>>56219147
Probably an inflated job title for a UX designer.
>>
>>56219596
what i mean to say is

out of 500 women we accept 390
and that out of 1000 men we accept 760.

doesnt that technically mean that with 5 fewer women accepted we'd be at an even rate?
>>
>>56218791
>woman are better code-monkeys than man
Of course, that's true, because most code-monkeys are poo in the loos. Real man don't do "coding" jobs so they're missing from the cancer called github.
Yes, woman are better than Pajeet.

10 fewer, not 5 fewer, going by the rates you provided.
>>
have 20 autistic coding girls
have 2000000 coding men comprised of a mixture of hipsters, pajeets, and autistic people

>girls have a better aproval rate

wow, never would have seen that coming

Cool non-controlled study bro. What if... (now stick with me here) what if... the women who felt the need to disclose their gender were ones contributing lower quality or unnecessary code? There's no control group here. It could certainly be argued that women who felt the need to disclose their gender in their profile were of a different disposition than those who didn't, from a psychological standpoint, and this could have an effect on the work they produce or how they chose to present it.

she doesn't.
she makes money from marketing shit on Instagram and other sites.

You cis fucking scum.

thats her job, click baiting on instagram

They hide their gender because it isn't relevant when you know what you're doing. They don't need the safe pillowy confines of a scapegoat to explain away their shitty code.
>>
>>56219050
Weird how inconsistent this seems. What are they trying to propagate? Women are meant to do whatever they want to, but men need to strictly follow stereotypes to make women feel comfortable? Stuff like that makes me really angry.
>>
What a dumb article. Any profession that has a strong gender bias due to societal or historical reasons will end up having a minority of workers in the lesser gender who are far above average in terms of skill.

This is because when something isn't targeted towards your gender you enter it (usually) for reasons of genuine passion and desire not simply because it's there.

While programming has become trendy in the last few years any woman who was doing it a decade ago was doing it simply because she loved programming, so of course she was good at it, she had a much stronger desire to learn than some guy who fell in to it just because 'well I like computers I guess'.

Where's the article on why all the best hairdressers in the world are men?

It pretty much feels like men are good at nothing these days.

Women are better parents, better coders, better science fiction writers, better engineers, better leaders, better doctors, better drivers, artists, animators... etc.

What does that leaves men, labouring in factories, working the soil in farms, being ground pounders for the armies under the command of female generals, being locked in breeding facilities constantly undergoing tests to maintain their value as a genetic source?
