My guess is a bit of both. As a woman who’s spent some time working in IT, there are still more than enough men who are pissed at having to include women and would jump at the opportunity to get them out of the door or degrade them as soon as possible. Give them an opportunity like “Oh no, now we have to take those women-related things down. Just in case, gotta keep our funding. Too bad, so sad.” and they’ll jump on it.
