Having a speaker series featuring women in tech is not "anti-male discrimination". Maybe it would be if there weren't 1000+ other tech conferences where the majority of speakers are men. How someone can say stuff like this in 2014 honestly baffles me.


It’s obviously "anti-male discrimination," by definition. It’s just not evil or unwarranted. Discrimination is not a synonym for hate; it basically means selection criteria or bias, which obviously applies. For pete’s sake. Are you so eager to prove you’re a good guy that you’re going to paint everyone else as a bigot?
