If you have decided to put 50% of the population into a single box, I find that to simplistic.

Would you accept a similarly general negative statement about men? All men are lazy? All men put women down? Or would you consider any such statement too generalising?

Really depends on the context. I'm speaking in the "women are so actively discriminated against that there are no women in tech when really just a lot of women are not interested in CS" context.
