I think this is the crux of where I started to disagree with her:
> In fact, only 5% of U.S. High schools even offer the Computer Science AP exam in the first place. As a result, many women...
I don't understand why this affects only women. Or more importantly, affects women (and minorities) more than other groups.
There are social stigmas and the like we could examine, but this particular quote as written reads as a non-sequitur to me.
Edit: Just to clarify, I don't want to belittle the very real disparities we are facing in the tech industry. Also worth noting, I thought she was articulate and I appreciated her sources and statistics.
