I understand that most of the tech community is men, and probably in this community as well.
But some of y'all just make me lose hope, in seeing how pathetic your thought processes are.
Women don't need to work cause India's GDP doesn't demand so? Excuse me?
Have you heard of financial independence. Some of us want that.
The next thing is diversity hiring.
Diversity hiring is needed because of regressive thought processes like these that discourage and inhibit the progress of women in the workplace.
Women in general, have to go through a lot more in comparison to men in life.
Consider an example: You are a guy going to university, you mom does everything for you, you have enough time to study and do everything you want, go out with friends.
Now another girl in your class might be expected to do housework, along with studies.
If she doesn't score well she is threatened to be married off. As a result she only has so much time to study and not do extra curricular activities, while the guy can do all of that just because of the privilege of being male.
This is why the bar of entry is lowered, so that women who are struggling in life, fighting their way through these odds can progess in life.
Even if women who don't have these situations benefit, even if it benefits one person, makes their life better. How does it even bother you?
Instead you want to make thier lives hell by shitting on them as diversity hire.
Please learn empathy. Learn to respect and understand the struggles of others, regardless of their gender.
Also acknowledge that as a male you have more privileges than women, because we are in a patriarchal society, which is why women need a helping hand sometimes.
