One thing I have learned from my wonderful partner is stories like this can be incredibly alienating to women who don't fit into them.<p>For example, the "all women get catcalled" - my partner notes that since she never gets catcalled, she must be too ugly.<p>So what about the women who have an entirely different kind of experience?

Really hard to hire women in tech. Whenever I interviewed them, turned out they only studied Liberal Arts in college. That is very unqualified. And for the few ones that studied Physics, Engineering, or Computer Science in College, Google and other major compnies alredy hired to them all. So again, no luck there either.<p>In the end, you really can't force women to study something they don't like, like Calculus and Physics, the requirements for Computer Science. Afterall, they're independent, and they will study whatever they want in college, which is usally Liberal Arts, Teaching, Psychology, or Biology. But never math, or physics.
