Speaking as a willy-enabled educator, getting male viewpoints on getting more girls into tech would actually be pretty valuable. I just spent a couple of weeks in another state talking to women who were involved with evangelising tech to girls, but I feel that their approach wouldn't be as successful for me. This is one of the things that I want to focus on in the future; we have so many smart girls coming through in the math and science areas that tech could be really good for, even if it wasn't their main focus.
If you look at who was speaking, the man who was trying to evangelise tech was a good example of that. In that respect, having a woman who was evangelising would be a good counterpoint. I'm not entirely sure of the point of the angle of a guy who didn't believe it was a problem was though, given there's an obvious gap still there.
Concession: I haven't listened to the interview as of yet. I know they did have a young girl programmer who spoke too, but it was a pre-recorded bit, so didn't have any interaction.
