    That comparison would make sense if it was set in a universe where tech is a female dominated field in which males are paid less.

      If this post was in a gendered community, I wouldn’t have responded at all. But it was posted to Technology, ostensibly a topic of interest to all technology subscribers.

      Discrimination based on someone’s non-optional attributes, especially protected classes such as gender, is exclusive by definition. That means we are discriminating against subscribers of the technology community if we can’t point out the sexism inherit in the article.
