It sounds like women who grow up hearing they can be whoever they want to be tend to not want to be techies. I don't blame them. If I were any good at anything else I wouldn't do STEM for a living, either. It's a thankless job best outsourced.

Each to there own. I think it's a great life. I'd almost do my work for free. I can't imagine doing a job I hated long term.

I’d absolutely write code for free. You need to pay me to come to your spreadsheet mine every day and work on your specific problems though.
