This is a trope that recurs on every thread about this topic. It's insulting to everyone's intelligence. Clearly, the person to whom you're replying believes that, absent artificial and unnecessary barriers erected, deliberately or not, to keep women out of the field, far more women would choose technology career paths, just as they did when medicine cleared those obstacles and when law cleared those obstacles, and when biochemisty cleared those obstacles, and the field of mathematics, and actuarial science, and economics, and on and on.

I'm certain you know that's what he meant as well. You can disagree with him that any such obstacles exist (you'll be wrong, but at least you'll be coherent). But why instead waste our time and your own with a pointless no-op of a rebuttal?
