      People don’t like hearing about it but I worked at one of the major sponsor of a past conference and my employer openly admitted that they wanted to increase the % of women in the company. I think that is gender discrimination but i also want more women at work so i am not personally against that.

        The kind of discrimination that is a problem is unjust or prejudicial. Diversifying personnel is neither unjust nor prejudicial.

        Rather, this is the good kind of discrimination, where we respect the differences between people.
