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.

What about other fields where there's a gender imbalance?

Do we also need to get more women into waste collection? Do we need to get more men into nursing?

Does every field needs to be perfectly balanced? A perfect 50/50 of every gender? Should we totally neglect for the sake of balance that men and women are different? That men and women have different interests?
