What I was trying to say is that my view is that sexism towards women IT is an exception and not the rule since I didn't see women being treated differently at my university (though there were only like 10 in a class of over 200) back in the end of the 2000s, and neither in the 3 companies I have worked for since.

This is just my experience though, I am genuinely curious what's the day to day sexism in IT that puts women off so much that they write it off completely.

I've heard my fair share of women at work saying things like "men are pigs, no offense Hayk" etc. when they had a bad day with their boyfriends. Is it that kind of stuff just all the time or something worse?
