    The attendees should be able to tell that they would be intruding even if the organization didn’t bother to check that. Both were in the wrong.

      When a woman shows up to a men’s event she is brave and courageous. When a man shows up to a women’s event, he is intruding.

      Hmm…

        It’s almost like women are disfavored in the tech industry and this is an attempt to make up for that.

        Can you stop staring at your own navel for even a second, Bob?

      How would they separate those intruding and those who the event was made for? Seems like a hard issue to solve
