Working more for less, ending up with more stress, eating genetically modified food, breathing in pollution, taking in constant radiation from wifi and cellular signals...the soft kill is working.
I'll just say that in Turkey I have worked with many female programmers and different females on the periphery (ones who interact with programmers on a daily basis, but may not be, themselves, programmers) and we do not have that problem here. No one disrespects them or makes advances towards or anything like that.
Not only that, but more and more women are taking Computer Science and getting into programming here in Turkey.
I'm also an American (born and raised) so I'd have to say it's a cultural issue, not an industry one. Fix your culture.
