This was true 10 years ago, today not so much. After several years of cultural revolution, recent crimes, discrimination lawsuits, the entire "women in tech" subject is toxic.

Now it is in implosion phase, where activists will start eating their own (just see the hit list OP published).

Another problem is AI. Common coders will become obsolete (together with "women in tech"). There is no push for more "women in plumbing jobs". Pushing young people into tech (presumably with expensive student loans) is just cruel. Women are not stupid!

The push exists, if you bother looking for it at all.

  • From your link:

    > increasing women’s equal access to union construction jobs

    That is not the same as "plumbing jobs". They want nice cushy unionized jobs, not dirty work

    • There are two links, and they were the first two I found in a 2 minute search, which you could, and should, have done yourself before forming the opinion that women as a whole are not pushing for trades jobs. It's pretty clear at this point that you formed the opinion first.
