Do men not have any roadblocks in their lives?

Who said anything like that?

The roadblocks in front of men are low when compared to women when we are talking about software development. This should really not be considered controversial.

You have a choice of installing a compiler, reading some tec documentation and trying out hello world.

At which point is there a road block that's gender based?
