> it's definitely very possible to be a quiet nerd who also has not the best attitude towards women
Of course, but that doesn't mean that "sexist quiet software engineer nerd" is a common personality type. In my experience the "quiet nerds" tend to be the most kind people.
Also I've found in America that most women seem to prefer dating outgoing men, so I'd guess that most of these women aren't dating these "quiet nerds".
> As an aside, calling women 'females' is definitely something that can set off alarms
Never realized the word had that connotation to some people. Sounds overly sensitive, but I'll use "women" if that's preferred.
