Sexism can totally be That's just an unbacked assertion; come back with something better. "nag" and get called a "bitch"! If you are a nag you probably deserve to get called a bitch. I'm fairly certain if I nag like the OP, I'll get called a bitch, and I'm not a girl. If that's sexism, I supposed it's misandry if I get called a dick. Lame. What happens when many females encounter similar attitudes in many CS work spaces What happens is that it will be demonstrable with a valid statistical test, instead of being stretched from one anecdote to a complaint about CS DepartmentS in general, which the idiotic OP did. I'm waiting for you to produce the stats. <crickets/>

"Come back with something better", "I am waiting on you to produce the stats", "<crickets/>" ...um, why would I want to engage in a discussion with someone who communicates like this? Also before you insult people's arguments by attempting to devalue them as assertions lacking proof, make sure you are also not guilty of the same. You use a lot of absolute language for someone concerned with evidence. Lots of things in life cant be proved, does that mean we cant talk about them like mature and curious adults?

  "Mature adults" don't make allegations without evidence, like Swept under the rug: the hidden sexism in CS departments why would I want The hell with your feelings, this is about true and false. Back up what you say or shut the hell up.

        when I bring up this situation or others with that lens, peoples' eyes cloud over. I think I've spotted your problem: you're full of shit. (Oh, and you like to trash people.) Maybe once you know what you're talking about instead of attacking people as being sexist, having mental health issues or needing to "chill out", they'll start taking you seriously.
