From Google To Yahoo, Tech Grapples With White Male Discontent (bloomberg.com)
Reader joshtops shares a Bloomberg report: Google isn't the only Silicon Valley employer being accused of hostility to white men. Yahoo and Tata Consultancy Services were already fighting discrimination lawsuits brought by white men before Google engineer James Damore ignited a firestorm -- and got himself fired -- with an internal memo criticizing the company's diversity efforts and claiming women are biologically less suited than men to be engineers. The Yahoo case began last year when two men sued, claiming they'd been unfairly fired after managers allegedly manipulated performance evaluations to favor women. They claim Marissa Mayer approved the review process and was involved in their terminations, and last month a judge ordered the former chief executive be deposed. TCS, meanwhile, is fighting three men who claim the Mumbai-based firm discriminates against non-Indians at its U.S. offices.
Don't you mean ". . . they go somewhere LESS tolerant" ?
If you treat them bad, they would go somewhere else. But to a place less tolerant of others, so that they don't get treated so badly. Or do I misunderstand your argument? Not that I necessarily agree with it.
I'll see your senator, and I'll raise you two judges.
The problem is that some white males are just making things worse by fighting the people trying to help them.
It's not a zero sum game, and it's not white males Vs everyone else.

He also said that women are less able to deal with stress, without qualification. A claim that isn't even supported by his sources.

Modded troll, because Slashdot hates open and honest debate and the truth trolls the poor snowflakes.
It wasn't supported by the sources, because they acknowledge that the two groups (male/female) are starting from different baseline levels of stress, and because social norms expect them to handle stress in different ways.
