while we *know* that there's blatant sexism at play too?

Do we really know? I accept that there's blatant sexism, but how can know it doesn't drive away males as well in the same ration as females?

If it drove away 90% of men the mailing lists and user groups would be
exploding. The very suggestion is utterly ludicrous.
