> I think that big part of it is due to women being not really interested in tech. I’m pretty sure there’s some hostility there, but never seen anything particularly bad or on a big scale. All women I worked and studied with never really complained on gender discrimination (while quite openly complaining on other things :).

This is not my experience. I know several women that dropped out of the tech industry because of discrimination.

I'm actually experiencing the other side of this. I don't have any diversity points, so I'm automatically disadvantaged when going for promotions since I won't be helping the company's quotas. (I've had some rare chances to be in some staff meetings way above my level... the things I heard...)
