I'm not sure I've ever called anyone too aggressive or too emotional. I can say that you are far from the first commenter I've castigated for completely missing the point. You're still doing it. No one in this subthread is disputing that there is an issue wrt women in tech. Whatever the other evidence, there's enough smoke to indicate a fire. I was going to ask for details on your male-named account, but realized I believe you, and it doesn't change the situation.
As for deducing an emotional response, your logic was obviously[] (and self-destructively) flawed, and the usual cause for that is some sort of emotional involvement. This is completely universal. I hardly needed to know, in addition, that this an emotionally sensitive topic. Which it is, what with everyone being accused of something.
While I couldn't vouch for my specific language in previous posts, this is not the first time I've done this and I'm guessing it was mostly men before. I'll try to work on bthem more evenhanded, when it comes up; I don't like a perceptual bias any more than you do.
[] For reasons I won't bother repeating. I'll just note that you didn't bother refuting any of them and went straight for the personal attack.
