The young boys have sometimes been worse than the old ones. When I talk to CTOs in their 30s, I feel like they take me more seriously and much less suspiciously than the 24 year olds.

Ouch! When did "CTOs in their 30s" become "the old ones"?

I didn't mean to imply that age had anything to do with it. I can't think of another phrase with a similar meaning. I am open to suggestions. I only meant that there is a certain social thing going on which welcomes men and excludes women in some manner. It seems to be getting better on hn, though I don't think I can objectively "prove" that.
