Well, I don't think I am stereotyping. I am absolutely not saying "all IT people have terrible social skills" or anything like that. Just because the stereotype exists does not mean I am promoting it.

Sorry if that is a sore point for you. But, making a point in the particular case is not the same as tarring all IT people. I do plenty to give push back against such stereotypes. * I generally prefer the company of IT people. I long have. It is part of why I spend so much time on HN. But I don't feel I need to follow some sort of extremist zero tolerance policy here.

* For example: http://micheleincalifornia.blogspot.com/2017/08/communicatin...

I didn't say most. And having a career choice in common is not at all comparable to something unchangeable like your race.
