  83. …in reply to @catehstn
    Illustrates an important point about the othering of women in tech. The need to build women-places, because we are not, in general, welcome.
  84. …in reply to @catehstn
    This annoys me so much even though I think following women because they are women is bullshit. But not following any is super indicative.
  85. …in reply to @catehstn
    If you want a broader range of perspectives you have to actually be open to listening to people with those perspectives.
