In Europe we don't (seem to) have the fratboy culture, but there are still very few women in tech. (Regarding race, certain groups seem to be overrepresented and others underrepresented) its mainly white guys, but Europe is mainly white.

Fratboy culture is just the latest manifestation of racism/sexism. Last I checked Europe had its fair share of issues there.

So Europe is racist and sexist? Sounds like that's what you are getting at.

I was saying that the fratboy culture wasn't a prerequisite for racism and sexism. And that Europe has their own issues with both. Or do you disagree?
