> It's so peculiar that the man who thinks few women are willing to "get in the trenches" never sees women really getting into the trenches.

I have seen women in the trenches but I don't see how that contradicts my claim that they are relatively few and there's probably a reason despite all the efforts to bring more women into tech.

I don't doubt this. But it's the exception to the rule, isn't it?

It's the truth even if you don't like it.

They want people to be passionate about whatever but in my experience the younger guys/gals are so preoccupied with themselves or some process that they spend endless hours discussing it instead of just getting some shit done.

It's not a one-dimensional scale of being "better". From my experience there are relatively few women who really get in the trenches. Call me conservative or reactionary or whatever but in my experience this is how it is in reality. Many women in tech are more into "softer" topics like agile coach. Staring at logs in a terminal and sifting through endless YAML not so much. There seems to be a little bit of denial that guys like us still have their value.
