The Grace Hopper Celebration is meant to unite women in tech. This year droves of men came looking for jobs.

    Purely commenting on the TikTok and not the article:

    “… career fair aimed at women and non-binary tech workers…” and then there’s a TikTok that says “A conference for (wo)men by women” and “the allies are totally allying”

    So do only female presenting nonbinary people count?

    (I know if you read the article that it says there was an increase in the number of self identifying males but how would the TikToker know that? The TikToker is just looking at the crowd and assuming that the place is overrun with men without actually checking if they’re NB.)

      That doesn’t seem like a job fair for women, but rather a job fair for everybody except men…

      You actually think there’s the slightest possibility that a meaningful fraction of the men there are actually ftm trans people?
