This is my understanding in a summary : If women wanted to be in I.T they would be and he doesn't care much for fashion.

I'm a woman and I'm in I.T because I want to be, so I guess he's right. Doesn't excuse the socks w/ sandals though.

Does anyone else understand what the hell was trying to be said in that article?! Incoherent as all hell..

I think he's trying to say that he the lack of gender balance in tech has nothing to do with him, and since the things which women complain are lacking for them are not things he finds he needs, then the complaints are all a bunch of malarky - women aren't in IT simply because they don't want to be.

I disagree. Rather, I find the lack of any sort of root-cause analysis about _why_ women don't want to be in IT to indicate large blind spot in the author's understanding of the problem.

I don't agree with everything, but he does have a point: where are all the programs encouraging straight men to join the fashion industry?

List any of the jobs you would stereotypically associate with women - e.g hairdresser, cook, fashionista - the most famous people in all of these roles are always men.

Men seem to take this type of role to the next level & turn it into an art form.

If a man wants a role in an industry - they work for it and take it and push it to new heights.

Women just need to do the same.

The fashion industry is heaving with straight men already.
