When I was in college I never had more than 1 girl in any of my CSC classes. It was the worst thing about my major. I never had more than 2 black guys in any either.

This culture by Google and the like to force diversity and their mindset is why I have never chosen to work for these west coast companies. If you don't fit into their liberal mold you will be outcast.

That is one west coast mentality in play.

Another is that a lot of shops out there tend to be overwhelmingly Asian and Indian, to the point where recruiters are admitting to me that I would be a severe minority there.

Women stopped coding primarily in the 80s with the advent of the personal computer.

Nowadays, it's almost like coding is anathema to them. I don't know what happened, but this never used to be the case.
