As someone who has been in the valley along while, the disrespect from women seems to come from a couple of angles -- the bro culture (define as you wise, Uber excels in this), racial groups (indian males are amongst the worst), and many of those that grew up outside the bay area.
Some of us have been seeing each other as equals for years, judgement based on merit, but many a*holes still perpetuate issues.
My data set -- several startups, a few big companies, bay area native; my wife non native, white, a number of large prominent technical companies. One of us in engineering, the other in project/program management.
The influx of H1-B, caste loving people is making the push for equality a difficult one.
