I am sorry to anyone that finds the word "female" offensive. I just wanted to start an open dialogue, not offend anyone.

Sorry.

So gender ratios aren't a thing?

Ask HN: How many females do you work with?

Not sure why you're being downvoted. Telemtery can be a invaluable tool for a whole bunch of reasons. It should, of course, be optional.
