I can't take anything seriously from a person, who says > "Now, don’t get me wrong here: I am one hundred percent aware that history regularly erases the contributions of women, an…

what did you expect from the Guardian...?

this looks very interesting! Has anyone used it before?

oh yeah, the Gawker thing was pretty awesome actually. Gawker got what he deserved

And I guess the medias head exploded when everyone clapped at the RNC when he said "I'm proud to be gay, a republican and an American". Didn't you know republicans hate everything …

I don't understand the medias obsession with Thiel since Trumps election. He's a republican. K He's gay. K He's critical of the Silicon Valley echo chamber. K He's a great business…

so in STEM it's only sexism and not the fact that there are less women/ less women with interest? Where's sexism in medicine, sociology, biology?

This phenomenon isn't entirely new. Some man have seen it as "Scandinavian gender paradox". Still, why are we surprised? We know instinctively, that there will never web 50/50 in s…

what do you want then? Everyone is supposed to have the same opinion?

:D These diversity preachers are just a bunch pathetic weasels who haven't learned to work with/accept people with differing opinions

I can't say that's a surprising headline for them anymore

have you seen Flattr? Sounds like exactly that

I agree. Ever since Snowden they have been going to absolute horse shit. examples: https://somuchguardian.tumblr.com most recent example: basically calling Taylor swift a white sup…

So this lady doesn't like to work in tech, because a single men told her that fewer women are interested in tech than men? Maybe she was wrong there from the beginning, if she can'…

well, I wish I could be that direct sometimes :D

Multiple problems with your argumentation: 1. women and minorities are underrepresented. True. That does not imply there is sexism. In reality, women have a 2:1 chance over men to …

"Tons of great people, and, disproportionately, women and minorities, can perform less well at technical interviews but be great in role." You lost all your credibility with one se…

I don't care if he was right or wrong, or objective. And I don't claim to have sufficient knowledge about the topic to disprove/approve his points. I care about the right to discus…
