Obviously it's because well paid white men are scum that do everything they can to prevent women, the obviously superior gender, to succeed. Women deserve to have opportunities handed to them while the scum men must sacrifice to make room for them in the already crowded rooms they've fought to get in to.

In all seriousness though why should there be adjustments made for women if we are equals? (which we definitely are) Shouldn't they standup for themselves and take what's theirs like I had to? Just because women are a minority in a field doesn't mean the entire field should change to accommodate their sensitivities or preferences regardless of merit.

I am tired of my race and gender (white male) being blamed for everyone else's problems. I was born into poverty, both of my parents worked hard to educate me and raised me to work hard. I didn't get to go to college yet I put in the time and effort to teach myself software engineering and now I make more than both of my parents combined.

I probably won't be believed and I might even be downvoted or banned for saying all this.

I hold NO ill will for women or other races. In fact I enjoy working with them and learning about where they come from and their experiences. I just can't respect anyone who first points blame at everything around them for their problems before looking for a solution from within. There are bigots out there but just because I look a certain way or I stand up for myself doesn't mean I am one.
