Most of the parents here will abuse their kids on a weekly basis with coding crap until they “like” it. Kids like to run, jump, play, be with other kids, not code.

FB seems to be the favorite punching bag for HN, probably because it’s full of people who have tried to set up 600 different startups and raised exactly $0 where as Zuckerberg made more money than all the people here combined in 100 years.

Let kids be kids and let them do kid’s things. Even if your passion is coding, you must not impose it.

My two cents about the summary:

1) Lack of IT courses in K-12 affects both genders, why make this a female issue?

2) Completely subjective.

3) Pretty much the opposite. There are tons of events for women only, as well as grants and positions that are available for women only or where they’re more likely to get hired than men (so quota is filled).

4) Most of women (as in 99%) in CS don’t suffer this. Even this being of importance, I believe this happens in all industries.

5) Similar to point 3.

6) Well, empower yourself? What do we tell to male nurses then?
