[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wage gap is a myth (agree)
Diversity for diversities sake is a joke should hire the best (agree)
Women are different than men and are better at certain things (agree)

Anyone not agree with those 3?  [/quote]

I disagree. Women can code and be as technical (or more technical) than men and therefore better at it. Working in technology with men is difficult at best. I think many engineers have difficult personalities to begin with, couple that with the constant need to work harder than men "to prove myself" makes for a very horrible work environment. This manifesto is so representative of white and Indian men in tech. There is an outright dismissal of women being technically competent.[/quote]

Humm

Of course a woman can be be just as good or better.  Anyone who makes it through the hiring process belongs there.  However when you have HR pushing diversity down your throat people are going to start wondering if a woman/URM really belongs there or is just a "diversity" hire.  If I were you I would tell the diversity people to shutup and focus on hiring the best candidates period.

Separately I know there is an issue of women being treated like crap in India.  Perhaps some of that is still in place with Indians who have not totally adjusted to American culture.  Many Indians (like any other minority group) only hang out with their own minority so culture norms continue to be reinforced.  [/quote]

Lol.  I love how you somehow managed to be both sexist and racist in this post.  DCUM classic. [/quote]
