Agree and disagree
Yes there are fewer women in IT. I know because I am one of them. But it may not be gender discrimination. At least not at the end of the line. In my kid's high school, the IT related courses are filled with boys. Not just a few girls, NO girls. Science and Engineering is making inroads with programs like STEM to encourage more interest from girls. Perhaps we need to look at the education of our children and see if there might be underlying problems in garnerning interest from the female side of the population.
My second comment is that I find it offensive to say that because IT is changing, it may now be better suited to women. Pull women in for the "soft" skills?!?!?! Please. Stop stereotyping men and women and look at the real issues.
