if your focus is on having more women in computer science, you’ll find yourself surprised in 20 years when programmers have the salary, working conditions, and prestige of secretaries. the whole prestige of comp sci is that it has few women.
we’re seeing this process also in hospitals: as there are more and more men who are becoming nurses, the salaries and powers of nurses are increasing; medicine itself is being associated with women, and so people are now questioning their high salaries. same thing happened with lawyers and computer scientists and school teachers and so on.
