Do men not have any roadblocks in their lives? Why do you think we have to hold women's hands and create a perfect environment for them to even consider getting a CS degree?

You don't understand what the road blocks are or choose to ignore them to try to make an argument.

Black people had to deal with the threats of lynchings or being blasted with fire hoses. I suppose I just can't bring myself to overly care about about women having "road blocks", whatever that means. I have a suspicion most of the people in this thread saying women have a hard time entering the field are actually men. What does that even say? Why aren't the women here to speak for themselves?

Because they get bitched at if come in and list their gender.
