Not to necessarily say that you're not aware of the situation in your own company, but I think a large part of the point of the poster you were responding to was: women don't shout about things and complain on a regular basis.
and I'm sorry if as a chick/girl/female/woman I get sick of continuously hearing: "wow! you're a girl, and you're here!!"
(I will be the first to admit that as a girl I definitely get advantages in the tech field, but I'd probably say those "advantages" are harmful. I certainly don't want something I don't deserve, and I want to know I deserve something I get -- a job, a grade, help on a problem...)
