Because there is rampant misogyny in the industry as the dismissive replies and often outright hostile attitude you tend to see from the tech community towards anyone raising these type of concerns.
It was offensive and dismissive, so I responded in kind.
Anyone who is so ignorant as to deny the rampant misogyny in tech -- in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary -- is not someone who is going to be swayed by any appeal to reason and so I'm not going to waste my time in vain.
